Those who complain of the difficulty of growing the heath, are often, as Loddiges remarks, ignorant people who have never had a heath to grow.

One circumstance in favor of the culture of heaths is, that they are not subject to insects, or at least very rarely so. (Greenhouse Companion, p. 62.) The number of species is here reduced to those which are certainly different from each other. Of those enumerated in garden catalogues many are mere repetitions of each other. 893. Menziesia. Named in honor of Mr. Archibald Menzies, an assiduous and successful botanist, who accompanied Vancouver, in the capacity of his surgeon, in his voyage round the world. He is still living, and the ornament of the private circle in which he moves. Small heathlike plants, all hardy, and requiring the same cultivation as Erica. 894. Chlora. From χλωρoς, green, in allusion to the color of the dried flower of C. perfoliata. The whole plant dyes yellow, 895. Michauxia.

It is derived from ῥεσσω, to burst ; that is to say, good against ruptures. The hardy species thrive best in a bed of peat; or they will grow very well in pots. 901. Enothera. Derived from orvos, wine, and new, to hunt. The roots of this plant, O. biennis, eaten after meals, are incentives to wine-drinking, as olives are. light rich soil, and they increase either by seeds or cuttings. O. biennis is called the night primrose, because This is an ornamental genus of easy culture in the flowers usually open between six and seven o'clock in the evening. The mode of their expanding is curious. The petals are held together at top by the hooks at the end of the calyx, the segments of which first separate at bottom and discover the corolla, a long time before it acquires sufficient expansive force to unhook the calyx at top; when it has accomplished this, it expands very fast, almost instantaneously, to a certain point, and then makes a stop, taking a little time to spread out quite flat: it may be half an hour from the first bursting of the calyx at bottom to the final expansion of the corolla; which commonly becomes flaccid in the course of the next day, sooner or later according to the heat or coolness of the weather.

The roots are eaten in some countries in the spring. O. longiflora has flowers uncommonly large and shewy, which continue from July to October. The dwarf North American herbaceous kinds, are among the most beautiful plants of our borders. 902. Gaura. A very curious genus, so called from γauρoς, superb. Its flowers are rose colored, in fine terminal spikes. Plants with the habit of Œnothera, and requiring the same management. 903. Epilobium. From επi, upon, and λoβoς, a pod; that is to say, a flower growing upon a pod. E. angustifolium is a native of most parts of Europe, from Lapland to Italy. It is valuable in shrubberies as thriving under the drip of trees, and succeeds every where, even in the smoke of cities, and in parks: it is a good plant to adorn pieces of water, being hardy, of rapid increase, not much relished by cattle, and very shewy when in flower. According to Haller, the young shoots are eatable, although an infusion of the plant stupifies: the pith when dried, is boiled, and becoming sweet, is by a proper process made into ale, and this into vinegar by the Kamtschatdales; it is also added to the cow-parsnip, to enrich the spirit that is prepared OCTANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 5477 hirsútum W.
