L i n n . 13, Or. 6, Nat. Or. llanitnculàcece. A
numerous and highly ornamental genus of, for
the most ]iart, climbing plants. The greenhouse
species are very desirable where climbers
arc wanted ; they grow well in any light soil,
or loam and peat ; cuttings root freely under
a glass. The same treatment is reiiuired for
the stove kinds. The liardy kinds grow in
any common garden soil, and are well adapted
for trellis-work, or for training against a wall.
They are readily increased by laying the young
shoots in July or October. The herbaceous
kinds are increased by dividing the plants at
the root early in spring. Synonymes: 1, C.
