THENARDIA floribunda. (apocynaceae) Mexico. Recently intro- 
~ duced by ourselves. An evergreen twining vine, with neat lance shaped 
leaves about one inch across and four or five inches long, and producing 
umbels of maroon colored flowers with white center. Extremely fra- 
grant. The vine is a good grower, does not get too heavy, and the scent 
of the flowers is delicious. It appears to be resistant to several degrees 
of cold and has certainly proved very vigorous and healthy with us. 
Anyone who is fond of fragrant flowers should be pleased with this new- 
comer. It does not appear to be particular as to soil and likes a reason- 
able amount of water during summer months. Sun. 24°.

THUNBERGIA gibsoni. (acanthaceae) South Africa. Evergreen 
twining vine with neat heart shaped leaves and flowers of an intense 
glowing orange of an especially pure color. This vine flowers with us 
through the entire year; is best in full sun though it will bloom well in 
half shade. Will stand some cold but not too much, water during the 
summer season. 25°. (GH). lL gal. $0.50. 
THUNBERGIA gibsoni alba. East Africa. White flowered form of the 
preceding. Our own introduction. A good bloomer. We have not had 
it long enough to make too many statements about its hardiness. The 
flowers are very charming and attractive. 27° (GH).

 THUNBERGIA grandiflora. ‘“‘Blue Trumpet Vine’ (acanthaceae) 
India. Vigorous evergreen twining vine with fine shining leaves, and 
good sized clusters of large sky blue trumpet shaped flowers. Really a 
splendid thing when at its best. Is good in full sun and better in 
half shade and blooms over a great part of the year. Should be cut back 
hard from time to time to induce new growth, and keep itin bounds. Al- 
though the young plant is tender, when established, it can be cut back 
hard by a frost, even to the ground, and will usually come back again 
and bloom profusely the same year. 20°. WeabapUroa aly. bbls
