. Cyclopedia of American horticulture, comprising suggestions for cultivation of horticultural plants, descriptions of the species of fruits, vegetables, flowers, and ornamental plants sold in the United States and Canada, together with geographical and biographical sketches. Gardening. 23''5 Plant ng may relieve the ang^ulanfi of foundations trumpet creeper. slightly interspersed at the nmrgin with shrubs of another kind. Straight rows should be avoided. A laborer or a novice when told this will arrange the plants in a zigzag manner, thinking that be is placing them irregularly, the result often being almost the same as that of two rows. If the group is l^eii^g planted along a straight line, as the boundary ot a lot, the dis- tances of the successive plants from this line might be somewhat as follows: two feet, four fret, five feet, three feet, one foot, and the dist;nices apart, measured parallel with a fixrd line, should vary also. The ideal condition of a grnup of shrubl)ery is to have all the indi\''idual plants healthy, so that the foliage will appear fresh and of good color. This foliage should exten species of hardy or tender peren- nial, creeping herbs mostly from the tropical regions, with alternate or tufted roundish, long-petioled Ivs. and yellow, orange, or red fls. solitary on axillary or fascicled pedicels: calyx 4- 5-cleft; corolla snbrotate, with a very â ^ ' short tube, 5-8-cleft; stamens usually -A billow of equal to the number of corolladobes; anthers sagittate: capsule membran- ous, compressed, locxilicidally dehis- cent, the valves splitting to the middle. Europaea, Linn. A hardy trailing perennial with very slender stems : Ivs. orbicular, less than K in. across, 7-9-lobed: fls. small, on rather short pedicels, the 2 upper lobes of the corolla yellowish, the 3 lower pink.
