Its pod is curved inwards at its extremity. Small trees native of the South of Europe and North of Africa, and one doubtful species of Nepal. Young cuttings root of the South of Europe and North of Africa, and one doubtful species of Nepal. Young cuttings root in sand under a hand -glass. 944. Thermopsis. So named from the resemblance of the flower to that of a Lupine. This genus is cultivated with difficulty: it grows best in a light loamy soil, and may be increased by seed; dividing the root is liable to injure the plant, so that it is increased with difficulty by that means. (Bot. Cult. 427.) 945. Virgilia. A genus dedicated by Lamarck to the poet Virgil, whose Georgics contain many things interesting to botanists. to botanists. 946. Cyclopia. Named by Ventenat, from κuκλoς, a circle, and 785, a foot, in allusion to the replicate circle which is found about the base of the pods. is found about the base of the pods. 947. Baptisia.

Herbaceous plants of easy cultivation, and as border flowers ornamental. plants of easy cultivation, and as border flowers ornamental. 948. Podalyria. Podalyrus was a son of Æsculapius. Small Cape shrubs, with simple silky leaves and purple blossoms. The species may be grown in leaf mould and peat, or peat loam, and rooted by cuttings in sand, or raised from seeds. 949. Chorozemia.

Holland, at the foot of the mountains, in a loamy soil, near a spot where, after having been tantalized with finding many salt springs, his party had just met with an ample supply of fresh water. This welcome refreshment, of which he speaks feelingly in his book, seems to have suggested a name for this plant, which he had properly determined to constitute a new genus. He called it Chorozema, evidently from Xogos, a dance or Chorozěma, evidently from xogos, a dance or joyous assembly, and ζεμa, a drink, in allusion to the circumstance just mentioned. (Smith.) This genus ripens abundance of seeds, from which it may be readily increased, and also by young cuttings in sand under a bell-glass. 950. Podolobium. This and the succeeding names ending in lobium, refer in that part of their derivation to their pod; this genus is called from πες πoδoς, a foot, the pod being on a stalk. The species may be treated as Chorozemia. 951. Oxylobium. From oξuς, pointed, the pods being pointed. See Podolobium. 952. Callistachys. From κaλoς, beautiful, and saxus, a spike, in reference to the fine spikes of yellow flowers. These are handsome conservatory shrubs, which grow rapidly and flower freely. They may be raised from seeds or cuttings in sand under a bell-glass. 953. Brachysema. From βρaχuς, short, and σημa, a standard. The standard of the flower of the genus is very short. This is a handsome climber, increased by layers, cuttings in sand, or by seeds. Z4 DECANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 954. GOMPHOLO'BIUM. H. K. GOMPHOLOBIUM.
