B magnified : —By many this is considered the most beautiful of 
11 climbers. It is most floriferous and of easy culture. Flowers 
large varying from delicate mauve to rich purplish-crimson; throat 
light prim rose-colour ; panicles large and branching. A splendid plant 
for climbing purposes and also suitable as a plant for lawns. 
Bougainvillea N. O. Nyctagineae This genus contains some 
of the most gorgeous climbers in cultivation, the beauty of which 
lies in the colour of the bracts surrounding the flowers. All are 
strong cowers and require plenty of room for development. If 
trellis work is used for this genus, strong supports will be required as 
in a short time the plants become exceedingly bulky. Many of the 
species require occasional prunings. Propagation by cuttings. 
B. glabra: — Bracts rose-coloured, smaller than B. speciosa. 
Leaves bright green and smooth. 
B speciosa : -This is a much stronger species than the former. 
Stems branched with an abundance of large recurved spines. 
The bracts are of a delicate lilac-rose colour. Suitable for full 
sun or partial shade and may be grown successfully on trees. 
Camoensia N. O. Leguminosae : — This is in an interesting 
e enus because of its containing the largest flowered leguminous plant 
known. Requires to be of considerable size before it commences to 
flower freely and therefore not one of the most suitable for a small 
garden. Propagation by cuttings. 
C. maxima -.—Flowers white about 9 inches long in short axillary 
racemes. Occasional prunings are beneficial when the plant becomes 
established. 
Cissus (Vitis) iV. O. Ampelideae : -Flowers inconspicuous, small 
greenish yellow with simple, trifoliate or palmate leaves. Propagation 
by cuttings.
