This is an entirely different plant from the varieties of Four O'clock grown in our gardens. It is distinguished by its triangular and somber foliage, inclining to grey, and by its habit of growth. The plant stands vigor, ously upright, attaining the height of about two feet, branch- ing in all directions, until it makes a beautiful circular bush fully three feet in diameter, and of perfect form. The name Multiflora (many flowered) comes from its large violet flowers collected together in bouquets of nine to twelve. It also justifies its name from the great duration of its flowers, which first appear in May or June, and last until frost. It will flower from seed the first- year, and is perfectly hardy, con- tinuing to flower year after year 10 426. —Tom Thumb.
