Monadelphta Decan dvua — Leg umino see. 
Lulage Hove a folia. An ornamental greenhouse plant, pro¬ 
ducing lively papilionaceous flowers; the standard is a clear 
bright yellow, which is pleasingly contrasted by the light purple 
hue of the wings and keel; but seeming to have an inclination 
to become weak and inclined to straggle, so that in the cultiva¬ 
tion this should be provided for by frequent cropping of the 
shoots. To cultivate it to advantage it should be potted in light 
loam and heath-mould, and allowed a light and airy part of the 
greenhouse. A native of New Holland.— Pax. Mag. Bot. 
Monadelphia Polyandria — Malvacece. 
Malva Campanulata. This plant may be termed a half-hardy 
perennial; it is certainly one of the handsomest species of the 
extensive genus, Malva. The flowers, which are delicate pale blue 
with a slight tinge of pink, are produced in great abundance, 
and relieved of that coarseness so frequently seen in plants of 
this genus. It is well suited for planting in masses in the sum¬ 
mer flower garden, and only requires the protection afforded by 
a cold frame during the winter, when it should be cut closely down 
and rather sparingly supplied with water. It was originated in 
the pine-apple nursery about three years ago .-—Pax. Mag. Bot. 
Didynamia Angiospermia — Scrophulariacece. 
Pevstemon Gentianoides var. Splendens. A very fine variety 
of the old Gentianoides, combining the bright scarlet of the va¬ 
riety coccinea, with the purple of the original species. The 
flowers are rather larger than those of either of the above-named 
kinds, and are produced in great profusion. It requires the 
treatment given to half-hardy plants. — Pax. Mag. Bot. 
Didynamia Angiospermia — Bignoniacece. 
Bignonia Picta. A very handsome species, recently flowered 
in the collection of Messrs. Rollisson, at Tooting. The flowers 
are campanulate, the tube about two inches in length, and half as 
much in diameter ; limb spreading nearly two inches in width, of 
a fine violet colour tinted with deep purple, produced in pairs on 
all parts of the plant which is a compact creeper, and is pro¬ 
bably as hardy as B. capreolata, and like other bignonias de¬ 
lights in strong rich loam. It is well adapted for covering trellis
