Some Common Names 
Thank you for the very interesting copy 
of Saier’s Garden Magazine. For some 
time I have had some information for Law- 
son Bailey, as requested on page 46. 
Bolusanthus speciosus, Rhodesian Wist- 
eria. 
M’pakwa, M’'poea, and Maawthlu. This 
is given in Macmillan: Tropical Planting & 
Gardening, page 80. 
Caesalpina Gilliesii is called the Bird of 
Paradise in the Southwest as is also Strelit- 
izia reginae. Reference, Hoyt: Ornamental 
Plants for Sub-tropical Regions, page 297. 
The common name for Bauhinia, accord- 
ing to Bailey,s Cyclopedia of Horticulture, 
is Mountain Mahogany and Orchid Tree. 
Erythrina humeana is called Hume’s Ery- 
thrina in Nicholson’s Illustrated Dictionary 
of Gardening, vol. 1, page 532, but Steed- 
man: Some Trees, etc., of Southern Rhodesia, 
on page 24, discusses the confusion of this 
with other Erythrinas and gives no common 
name. 
Hoping this will be of interest, 
By Anna D. Menninger, Los Angelus 
Plant Rudbeckias Now 
It is time now 
to sow seeds of this 
very pretty flower. 
If you will sow 
the general mixture 
™ which contains all 
the various variet- 
ies you will be re- 
paid with a pretty 
mass of flowers at 
this time next year. 
They all have a 
prominant center 
of a dark brown, 
color and shades of 
yellow and some are tinged with red. They 
grow about 2-3 feet high and not hard to 
raise; better treated as a biennial.

fering these wire holders and will do so for 
next spring as the only source that we know 
of is in England. ; 
Write us more about flowers in Alaska. 
We are going to send your collection of 
Pink Daffodils by air mail, so that they can 
be planted as early as possible, and suppose 
you send us some native seeds of Iris and

AFRICAN VIOLET STEM CUTTINGS 
A leaf with a stem 2 inches long will root 
easily and quickly in water. Split the stem 
a half inch and allow to stand a couple of 
hours before putting into the water. : 
Use a colored glass or bottle and keep the 
water level so as to cover the end of the stem, 
an inch. 
A cover to the glass with holes punched 
through it to hold the stem steady will keep 
the stem at the correct level better than just 
laying the leaf over the edge of the container,
