This is one of an old genus of herbaceous plants, natives of different countries, some of them requiring the heat of a stove, others the shelter of a greenhouse, while a thu-d section withstand the rigour of our winters. All of them have fleshy roots or rhizomes, and they belong to the natm-al order, Spiderworts, the genus Tradescantia being the next of the order which is best known to cultivators. They fill up a transition point between the sedges and sedge-like plants, as Xyrids, on the one hand, and tlie Lilyworts on the other. The genus was named in honour of J. and G. Commelin, two Dutch botanists, by Dillenius, a celebrated professor of botany at Oxford, after whom Liuna3us named the genus Dillenia.
