.^^SlHESE give a very beautiful and tropical aspect to pleasure grounds, by their stately growth 
and broad, massive foliage, relieved by rich crimson, scarlet, orange, or yellow flowers 
during the summer months ; their foliage, comprising various shades of rich green, glaucous 
and chocolate-crimson leaf-tints, fits them admirably for effective groups, their appearance rendering 
them a striking contrast to other plants. 
They are also invaluable for large pot plants as portable specimens in pleasure-ground decoration, 
and equally so for summer groups in large conservatories, in which their great diversity of foliage 
appears to advantage, and they are very ornamental for any purpose. The following are the best 
for conservatory, porches, or standing in tubs, pots, &c. ; about a garden they are grand objects, and 
for beds or single clumps are the finest flowering varieties of this family we ever had.
