History, Use, Propagation, Culture, 
401. Leucopogon. From Xiuxo;, white, and ■zoym, a beard, because the segments of the white flowers are 
bearded. A very extensive genus of small shrubs, with spiked axillary or terminal flowers. Culture as for 
Andersonia. 
402. Stenanthera. From imvog, narrow, and av^'/i^a,, an anther ; the anther being in this genus not 
so broad as its filament. A bush with pine-like leaves, and erect large scarlet blossoms. Culture as in 
Andersonia. 
403. Azalea. From at^aXio?, dry, arid ; either in allusion to the places where the plant grows, or to the 
brittle dry nature of its wood. This is a very ornamental genus, from its abundance of flowers of almost all 
colors, and the fragrant smell of most of the species. A. indica is the most delicate, but flowers well in a moist 
heat in rough peat well drained. According to Sweet, " it thrives best in a sandy peat, and the pots to be well 
drained with small pieces of potsherd : it should be set in an airy part of the greenhouse in winter, and great 
care must be taken not to over-water it : in summer it should be exposed to the open air, but not in a very 
sunny situation. Young cuttings taken off" close to the plant, and planted in pots of sand, will root readily, if 
plunged in heat under a bell-glass." {Bot. Cult. 144.) T. Blake keeps his plants " in peat and leaf-mould, 
always in the greenhouse till they are in a flowering state, and then he removes them to the hothouse, the 
sudden heat causing the blossom to open the better." {Hort. Trans, iv. 133.) J. Nairn uses the most fibrous 
part of peat-earth and sand ; he places them in a considerable heat, and always in the shade, and when the 
plants exhibit blossom buds in March, he then raises the temperature from 50° to 60°. This species strikes by 
cuttings of the young wood, taken off close to that which is ripened, planted in pots of sand, and plunged 
under a bell-glass. 
The hardy Azaleas are best grown in compartments or groups by themselves, or with other American or 
European plants requiring a moist peat soil, and rather shady situation. Where peat is not to be had, the
