Two Kast American perennial herbs, with 3-foliolate nearly sessile Ivs. and 5 long white or rose-tinged narrow petals, which are more or less unequal, 10-20 included stamens, 5-toothed calyx, and 5 2—1-seeded pods: fls. many in , termi- nal clusters in summer. To this genus Britton has recently given the name Porterdnthus (Porter's flower, in honor of Dr. T. C. Porter), because Adanson had earlier made a genus Gillena. The species are G. trifoli- ita, Jla'nch (Bowman's Root), in rich woods from N. Y. to Ga. (Mn. 8:129. 489), and G. stipulicea, Nutt. (American Ipecac), with a more southern range. The former has ovate-oblong serrate leaflets and small, mostly entire stipules: the latter has lanceolate deeply incised leaflets and leafy incised stipules, and is more pubescent. Gillenias are excellent, graceful plants for the mixed or hardy border. They are hardy and of easy culture in any good soil. 2-4 ft. tall. They propagate by seed and division. L. jj. B.
