"While the plant is used to a considerable extenl for the production of fiber in 

 Mexico, 1 think it is doubtful whether ii could be used for this purpose profitably in 

 this country with our presenl facilities for cleaning fiber. Ii is a rather striking 

 ornamental plant, with it- large open panicle of pinkish or purplish flowers, foUowea 

 by pear-shaped, dark-purple seed pods. I would recommend it especially for plant- 

 ing in dry situations in parks and in the Southern States. In the northern pari of 

 its range in Mexico it must endure winter temperatures down to zero, ami if planted 

 in well-drained -oil- and protected by a mulch in winter, it will doubtless survive out 

 of doors in the park> of the Southern States." D
