IPOJLEA (The Morning Glory), Nat. Ord. Convolvulacece. 

 A genus of beautiful plants, which for the adornment of the conservatory and green- 

 house, or for warm sheltered situations out of doors, are pre-eminently beautiful, many of them 

 combining marvellously brilliant colours, with pure white margins, and varying in shade from 

 the most intense violet "blue to the most delicate cerulean. Amongst the varieties raised by our 

 "Sardinian Correspondent," I. hederacea superba atro-violacea (figured in the "Florist" 

 under the name of 1. limbata elcgantissima), and I. hybrida marginata, are of greatest merit, 

 and should occupy a place in every conservatory ; when intermixed with other climbers, they 

 produce a gorgeous effect. All the other varieties are sj'lendid, and should be extensively 

 cultivated. The perennial species are invaluable, amongst which we may name the magnificent 



' /. Learii, I. Horsfallise, and I. Mexicana grandifloi a alba ; succeed in any light rich soil.
