Linaria CijmbalarUi. KENN£STA (Kennedy, of the nursery firm of Ken- nedy & Lee, important English nurserymen of the lat- ter part of last century). Legumindsce. Australian woody trailers or twiners of about a dozen species, making excellent plants for the intermediate house or conservatory. Fls. red to almost black, pea-like: Ivs. mostly pinnately 3-foliolate: standard orbicular or obo- vate, narrowed to a claw, and bearing minute auricles; wings falcate, joined to the keel; stamens diadelphous, — 9 and 1: pod linear, flattened or cylindrical, 2- valved, with pithy divisions between the seeds. Ken- nedyas are easily grown from cuttings of nearly ripe wood: also from seeds. They are mostly spring and summer bloomers, and should rest in winter. Give plenty of water during summer. They should be given support: they grow from 3-10 feet high, making stiff, woody stems. They may be trimmed back freely when at rest. The taller kinds, like K. ruhicmula and K. cocrinea, are excellent for rafters. Well-rooted plants may be planted permanently in the greenhouse border. A. Fls. nearly black. nigricans, Lindl. Twining, robust, somewhat pubes- cent: Ifts. (sometimes reduced to 1) broad-ovate or rhomboid, entire, obtuse or emarginate: fls. slender, 1 in. or more long, in short one-sided axillary racemes, deep violet-purple or almost black: pod flattened. 20:171,1.
