The jfreenliou'C species are very desirable u here climbers are wanted ; they grow well in any light soil, or loam and peat; cuttings root freely under a glass. The same treatment is required for the stove kinds. The hardy kinds grow ill any common garden soil, and are well adapted for trellis-woik, or for training against a wall. They are readily increased by laying tlie young shoots in .July or October. The herbaceous kinds are increa-^ed by dividing the plants at the root early in spring. Synon;ipnea: 1. C. calijrina. 2.
