tloles naked. It is an abundant flowerer, continuino- to 
flower in succession the greater part of the yearf if 
grown in a pot, and protected from the frost in winter. 
It appears to be perfectly hardy, and of easy culture, 
and would most likely thrive better in a light border in 
the open ground, than it does in a pot: if kept in a pot 
It should be planted in a mixture of loam and decayed 
leaves, or any light mould: it has not yet produced 
perfect seeds, but might probably be increased by cut- 
tings of the roots, planted in a pot of light mould, and 
placed in a close frame, with very little water, till they 
begin to grow, when they must be hardened to the air 
by degrees.
