greenhouses, having been introduced into them ever 
since the year 1790. It is a native of the Cape, but 
may be considered a hardy greenhouse plant, reqiiring 
only protection from frost in winter, and is more iable 
to suffer from damp than from cold. It will grov^ very

soil, and may be increased by cuttings or seeds: the 
latter method is to be preferred, as they ripen in ibun- 
dance.
