This interesting species of Plectranthus grows very freely and 
is of easy culture. It does well out-of-doors during the summer, 
and should be placed in the greenhouse during the winter, where 
it produces numerous pretty purple and white blossoms. It is 
propagated by cuttings or seeds. It was sent to me some years 
since under the name of Coleus Colvillei. — W, W. S.
