T ALPHABETICAL LIST OF BULBS AND TUPERS, GARDEN REQUISITES. 33 
Trop^EOLUMS — continued. 
The foregoing- Tropaeoluma are all beautiful climbers. Azureum, brachyceras, and Jarratti, are 
recommended for the greenhouse to trail over trellises, round pillars, etc. Pentaphyllum is a fine climber for 
warm sunny situations out-doors. Polyphyllum revels on a sunny rockwork. Tuberosum requires an open 
situation and poor soil, and should have branches to scramble over. Speciosum is one of the most lovely of hardy 
climbers, and may in the south be successfully grown if planted in a cool, moist situation, away from the sun’s 
rays; it delights in a shady place, and especially near a stream where its roots can enjoy the water.
