Plumbago, Leadwort . — The P. capensis is a beautiful border 
plant, and yields a profusion of its lead-coloured flowers through- 
out the summer; when planted out or plunged for the warm 
season in a favourable situation, it is much more pleasing than 
when confined. It is readily kept during the winter, among the 
hardy green-house plants. 
Rhododendron, Mountain Laurel . — The East Indian plant 
of this genus, R. arloreum , is one of the most magnificent of 
vegetables. The flowers are of a deep, brilliant crimson, made 
more distinct by dark spots; and those who have only seen the 
American varieties, can form but a very imperfect idea of the 
splendour of this species. Many hybrid varieties have been pro- 
duced from seed, some of which almost divide our admiration 
with the arboreum, and all are among the more showy flowers 
of the green-house.
