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 cyclopediaofamer01bail1 Year: 1900 base of f mit; corolla often with ocherous markings in the throat: fr. red, obtuse or oblong-acuminate, -liiui. long, }-in. in diam., very acrid. —Cultivated only in the south, as the seasons in temperate latitudes are not long enough to mature the fruit. Var. baccatum, Irish (C. bacc<itum, Linn.). Plants not as tall, but more erect than the spe- am/zj/'s • cies : branches slen- k fr\i fl) u der, fastigiate, flex- uose: corolla small, spreading, about in.: fr. ovate or sub- round, about Jin. in diam. H. C. Irish. CAEAGANA {Car- agan, its Mongolian name). Leguminosce. Pea Tree. Shrubs or small trees : Ivs. deciduous, abruptly pinnate, often with spiny - pointed and persistent rachis ; Ifts. small, entire, mueronulate ; stipules deciduous or spiny and persistent : fls. papilio- naceous, axillary, solitary or fascicled, usually yellow : fr. a linear pod. About 20 species from S. Russia to China. Ornamental shrubs, with handsome yellow fls., appearing late in spring or early in summer ; quite hardy, except a few Himalayan species. They grow in almost any soil, but best in a sandy soil and sunny position, and are well adapted for shrubberies. C. ar- borescens is the only one which grows into a small tree, and is of upright habit, like C. frutescens, which is about half as high and more graceful ; all the other species are low shrubs, of usually spreading habit. Prop, by seeds sown in fall or in spring ; if kept dry during the winter, soaking in tepid water for 2 or 3 days before sowing will be of advantage ; also, increased by root- cuttings and layers, or by grafting on seedling
