Trees and shrubs; an abridgment of the Arboretum et fruticetum britannicum: containing the hardy trees and shrubs of Britain, native and foreign, scientifically and popularly described; with their propagation, culture and uses and engravings of nearly all the species . C. fl(Srida fl. pi. vjolkceo. favourable exposure. Clematis fidrida. p. 147.; C. bicolor Hort. ; and our Jig. 14.; is in all respects the same as the last, except that the petals, or centre of the flower, are of a rich violet colour, approaching to purple. It was sent from Japan to Europe by Dr. Sieboldt; and introduced into England in 1836. It is a most ornamental plant, and as hardy and easily propagated as the other va-riety or the e-pecies. The stem is slender ^and striated; climbingto the height of 15 upwards when it istrained to a wall with athough never becoming very woody. The flowersare large and handsome, either in a single ordouble state ; and these, with the neatness of itsfoliage, and the slenderness of its stems andbranches, give it such an air of elegance, that nolover of plants should be without it, who has agarden in which it will thrive. North of Londonit requires a wall; and in Scotland, as well asin France and Germany, it is generally kept inthe green-house.
