Stalk shrubby, somewhat angular, three feet or more in -height, green, very much branched, slightly pubescent; Leaves opposite, -standing on short footstalks, ovato-lanceolate, running out to a short -blunt point, entire, veiny, a little downy; Peduncles from the alæ of -the leaves, alternate, dichotomous, two small bracteæ are placed at -each bifurcation; Flowers pure white, inodorous; Calyx composed of five -lanceolate, entire leaves, continuing; these, as well as the whole of -the plant, are beset with minute transparent globules, visible with -a magnifier. Corolla deciduous, tube linear, grooved, pale green, -slightly villous, bending a little upward; upper lip very narrow, bent -back, bifid at the extremity, the edges toward the base rolled back, so -as to make it appear in that part almost tubular; lower lip depending, -trifid, segments equal, obtuse at the base, round the mouth of the tube -marked with fine purple dots; Filaments two, short, projecting from -the mouth of the tube, finally bending back; Antheræ at first yellow, -afterwards livid; Germen oblong, smooth; Style capillary, slightly -hairy; Stigma bifid. - -The plant is increased by cuttings; in the _Hort.

Malab._?) all these varieties growing in separate -pots, they place in certain quarters which they particularly wish -to decorate, and the effect they produce is highly pleasing: in the -cultivation of this plant they spare no pains, the shorter it is and -the larger its flowers, the more it is esteemed; to make it dwarfish, -and at the same time productive of flowers, they check its growth; -for, if suffered to grow rude, it assumes a wild nature, and produces -little but leaves when it is coming into flower, of the three blossoms -which usually terminate each branch, they pluck off two, and thus the -remaining flower grows larger; by this, and other management, they -cause the flowers to grow to the breadth of one's hand: he enumerates -still a fifth sort with white flowers, which is extremely rare, and -smaller than the others, called _Tsehuy say si_, that is the _drunken -woman_; its flowers morning and evening flag, and hang down as if -debilitated by intoxication, in the middle of the day they become -erect, and follow the course of the sun; but this (most probably a -distinct species) is not exported from China. Finally, he remarks, that -the Chinese and Malays are so attached to these flowers, that they even -decorate their hair with them. - -THUNBERG, in his _Flora Japonica_, enumerates it among the -natives of that country, and describes it as growing spontaneously -in Papenberg, near Nagasaki, and elsewhere, observing, that it is -cultivated for the extreme beauty of its flowers in gardens and houses -throughout the whole empire of Japan, and that the flowers vary -infinitely in point of colour, size, and plenitude. KÆMPFER's -account of it in his _Amæn. Exot._ is very similar. - -This Chrysanthemum appears to be a hardy greenhouse plant, and it is -highly probable that, like the _Camellia_ and _Aucuba_, it will bear -the cold of our mild winters without injury. - -As it flowers so late, there is but little prospect of its producing -seeds with us, but it may be increased by cuttings, and parting of the -roots. - - - - -[328] - -TRIFOLIUM INCARNATUM.

It appears to have been lost out of this country since -its first introduction, as it is not mentioned by MILLER; Mr. AITON -enumerates it among the productions of Kew-Garden, and we last summer -saw several plants of it raised from foreign seeds flowering in the -garden of JOHN SYMMONS, Esq.

Mr. AITON makes it a biennial -greenhouse plant; it, no doubt, is one of those plants which are liable -to be killed in very severe weather, and therefore it is necessary to -keep a pot of it at least, during the Winter, either in the greenhouse -or a well-secured frame; but the plant will be found to succeed best in -the open ground, provided it be planted in bog-earth, in a situation -that is moist and moderately shady; with us it has proved perfectly -perennial. - -With care it can be propagated by layers and cuttings, but with most -certainty in the former mode; possibly it may be raised from seeds, -they ripen here, but are as fine as dust. - - - - -[349] - -SOLANUM LACINIATUM.

The whole plant is covered with viscid hairs; the -stalk about a foot high, is much branched; but the great peculiarity -of this plant consists in its flowers, the petals being long, narrow, -and pointed, and of a saffron colour, of a deeper tint when they first -open, and gradually changing to a pale yellow; the beauty of the -flowers is heightened by a glandular substance in the centre of each, -which when the flower expands is of a bright purple colour. - -This rare species of Saxifrage is a native of the Alps of Switzerland -and Italy; we raised it with difficulty from seeds sent us by Mr. -DAVAL, of Orbe, in Switzerland; it was three years before the -plants flowered; those now in bloom in my garden, June 15, bid fair -to produce seeds in abundance; the plant may also be produced from -offsets, in the same way as the _Saxifraga Cotyledon_, vulgarly called -_Pyramidal Sedum_, and requires a similar treatment; though an Alpine -plant, it must be sheltered from much wet and severe frosts. - -Baron HALLER describes it with spots on the petals; those -certainly did not exist on our plants. - - - - -[352] - -OENOTHERA PURPUREA.
