History, Use, Propagation, Culture, 
beautiful small plant, and, with A. latifolia and linifolia, require the protection of a frame during winter. 
A. tenella is a delicate bog-plant, but not a very certain tenant of the genus. It is probably botanically 
distinct. 
358. Diapensia. An ancient Greek name of the Sanicle, and signifying a plant which removes pain ; the 
Sanicle being a vulnerary. Linnaeus applied the name to this plant, which is neither a Sanicle nor a vulnerary, 
but a pretty alpine species, requiring the same cultivation as similar things, and retaining its de.ep green leaves 
through the severest winters. i 
359. Pyxidanthera. From itvli;, a box, and kv^vi^a,, an anther, the anthers bursting across like a little box. 
A small plant resembling Azalea procumbens, with heath-like leaves and minute white flowers. It is found on 
the White- Mountains of New Hampshire, and in Pine-barrens in other parts of North America, but is very 
rare in cultivation. 
360. Coris. A name of Dioscorides, for which even the etymological ingenuity of a Linnaeus or a De Theis 
have been unable to provide a meaning. It- was given to a plant analogous to Hypericum, and resembling the 
heath. Toumefort applied the name to this plant, whose fine leaves, and purple or pink flowers, clothe, like 
the heath, the places where it grows wild. 
361. Galax. From •yoiXa,, milk, in allusion to its milk-white spikes of flowers. This is a neat little plant, 
and thrives best in a moist situation ; where alone it flowers freely. * 
362. Menyanthes. From a month, and atvS-a?, flower, in allusion to the power which the plant is Sup- 
posed to possess of exciting menstruation. Buck-bean or Bog-bean, Eng., Bachsbohne, Ger. An infusion of 
the leaves is bitter, and is frequently recommended in dropsy and rheumatism. In Sweden the plant is used
