12, Or. 2, Nat. Or. Rosacea. This is described as a

KaianchOu, Adanson. The Chinese name of one of 
the species. Linn- 8, Or. 4, Nat. Or. Crassulacece. 
This is a pretty genus of succulent plants, requiring 
but little water when not in a free-growing state. 
They appear to do best in a mixture of loam and 
sand. They are very easily increased by cuttii^, 
which should be taken oflF, and laid to dry a few 
days before planting ; they will then root in a few 
days. Synonymes: 1. Verea actdiflora. 2. V, ere- 
nata. 3. Crassula rotundifolia.

KalmIa, Linn. In honour of Peter Kalm, professor 
at Abo, in Sweden, and author of Travels in 
America, 1753. Linn. 10, Or. 1, Nat. Or. Ericaceae. 
The plants of this genus rank among the most 
handsome of our hardy shrubs. They do best 
when grown in a peat soil, though they will grow 
in a very sandy loam ; they may be increased by 
layers or seeds, and when raised from the latter, 
they require the same treatment as that recom- 
mended for Rhododendron.
