 summer vines and entirely distinct from 

 the well-known Manettia vine. It is of 

 rapid growth, with deep green foliage and a won- 

 derful profusion of crimson scarlet tubular flow- 

 ers 1£ inches long. These are borne on longer stems than the 

 ordinary Manettia, and when grown on a trellis all the 

 flowers grow outward, 60 that the whole surface is a mass 

 of flowering crimson scarlet of a most pleasing shade, and of 

 sharp contrast to the foliage.

 tipped with bright yellow ; the contrast with the vivid green, glossy foliage is 

 startling, making the plant an object of rare beauty. (See cut).
