History, Use, Propagation, Culture, 
is produced by the twining species. Neither sorts can be safely planted in the open air before the end of 
April, or first week of May, and the leaves are blackened by the first frosts of autumn. But in a stove or pit, 
green pods of the dwarf kinds may be gathered all the winter, and with this advantage over forced produc- 
tions of the fruit kind required to be ripened, that the pods are as good from plants in the stove in midwinter, 
as from those in the open garden in midsummer. The garden culture of both species is so easy and univer- 
sally known, that we shall not occupy ourselves with details. Though in this country the green pods only are 
used, on the continent the ripened seeds are as much the object of culture. In Holland, the twiner is grown 
in every cottage garden for both purposes ; and in France and Switzerland, it is grown chiefly for the ripened 
seeds : in the latter countries it grows on very poor dry soil. On the first blackening of the leaves with frost, 
the plants are pulled up, dried like tobacco leaves under the dripping eaves of the houses; and in winter 
threshed out for the seeds, to be boiled and eaten with cream or butter, stewed in haricots, or put in soups. 
According to the analysis of Einhoff, 3840 parts of kidney bean afforded 1805 parts of matter analogous to 
starch, 857 of vegeto-animal matter, and 799 parts of mucillage : from which is to be inferred, that it is the 
most nourishing of all the legumes. 
The perennial stove species thrive best in a light rich soil, and may be propagated readily from cuttings or 
from seed. P. caracalla, or Snail-flower, is a very curious species, and will grow and flower freely, if kept 
clear from the red spiders. This species was so named by the Portuguese, who first brought it from South 
America, in consequence of its hooded flower. Caracalla (from the Celtic words car, a head, and cal, a 
covering) was the name of a hooded dress much worn by the Gauls, and gave his nickname to the Emperor 
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, who was accustomed to wear the dress.
