Clematis, Linn. From ArZetna, a vine branch ; because 
most of the species climb like the vine Linn. 13, 
Or. 6, Nat. Or. Ranunctdacex. A numerous and 
highly ornamental genus of, for the most part, 
climbing plants. The greenhouse species are very 
desirable where climbers are wanted; they grow 
well in any light soil, or loam and peat ; cuttings 
root freely under a glass. The same treatment is 
required for the stove kinds. The hardy kinds 
grow in any common garden soil, and are well 
adapted for trellis-work, or for training against a 
wall. They are readily increased by laying the 
young shoots in July or October. The herbaceous 
kinds are increased by dividing the plants at the 
root early in spring. Synonymes : 1. C. calycina.

Cleome, Linn. From kleio, to shut ; alluding to the 
pairts of the flower. Linn. 15, Nat. Or. Cap- 
paridaceae. The species .of this genus are very 
pretty, and free-flow'ering; the stove kinds require 
a rich light soil, and cuttings root freely under a 
glass. Some of the annual species require sowing 
in a hotbed flrame, or in a hothouse, and when 
potted off, to be placed among the tender annuals. 
The hardier kinds may be sown on a hotbed, and 
when of suflicient size, planted out in sheltered 
situations in the flower-borders. Synonymes: 1.
