It is impossible to describe the leaf markings of this beautiful class, to convey to the reader 

 any adequate idea of their beautv. Thev are marked with vellow, carmine, crimson and choco- 

 late, combinod together as only nature can. Thev will not stand full exposure to our summer 

 suns, but when planted in shady situations do well. As pot plants they are deservedly popular.
