Hemanthus, Linn. From helios, sun, and anthos, a 
flower ; on account of the brilliant colour of the 
flowers, and from the erroneous idea that the 
flowers always turned towards the sun. Linn. 19, 
Or. 2, Nat. Or. Compositae. The sun-flower is a 
highly ornamental and extensive genus of plants, 
and from their tall growth they are particularly 
adapted to the back of flower borders or the front 
of shrubberies, in which situation they make a 
splendid appearance in autumn ; they grow well 
in any common garden soil, the tender kinds being 
protected in winter. They are all easily increased 
by seed, which is ripened in abundance ; the annual 
kinds should be raised on a hotbed in spring, and 
when of sufficient size, transplanted into the open 
border, where they will grow and flower beauti- 
fully. Synonymes : 1. H. puhescens. 2. asper.

Hex^iconia, Linn. Derived from Helicon, the moun- 
tain of the Muses ; from its affinity to the genus 
Musa. Linn. 5, Or. 2, Nat. Or. Musacex. A rich 
loamy soil mixed with sand is best adapted for 
these curious plants, and to flower them in perfec- 
tion they require plenty of pot-room and a strong 
heat ; young plants are easily obtained by divi- 
sion of the roots. Synonymes :
