414 Report on some remarkable Hardy Ornamental Plants, $c. 



nearly erect ; the scape is, however, apt to be procumbent if not 

 supported. It seeds freely and will soon be very common. 



All the species of Calochortus, Cyclobothra and Triteleia are 

 probably hardy ; they seem only to require a shady situation and a 

 warm and light soil which is effectually protected from wet in winter. 

 But as they are all at present extremely rare, they have hitherto 

 been treated in the garden like half hardy bulbs ; that is to say, 

 have been taken up as soon as their leaves have died, and kept dry 

 till the roots have again begun to shoot. 



Some Polemoniaceas, and a few other plants raised from the same 

 seeds, will be the subject of a second Report, which will shortly be 

 laid before the Society.
