RUELLIA. 
Ruellia Makoyana (new). This new plant forms a graceful, branching subject, 
one of the principal attractions of which is a beautiful velvety foliage, with the upper 
surface of a rich olive-green, shading to purple, relieved with prominent silvery-white 
midrib and veins. The under side, however, is a bright purplish wine color. This 
acquisition is already in great favor. It is one of the most brilliant flowering plants 
known, specimens having been shown measuring thirty inches across, and carrying 
more than three hundred flowers open at one time. These are of large size, and of a 
bright carmine red; and not only do they appear in the spring, but also most abun- 
dantly in autumn. (See cut.) Price 30 As.
