CHAMaeCRISTA pavonis major. _Comm. Hort. 1. p. 53. t. 37._

[Ill.u.s.tration: No 107]

A native of the West-Indies, and of Virginia according to LINNaeUS; not common in our gardens, though cultivated as long ago as 1699, by the d.u.c.h.eSS OF BEAUFORT; (_vid. Hort. Kew._) unnoticed by MILLER.

This species, superior in beauty to many of the genus, is an annual, and consequently raised only from seeds, these must be sown in the spring, on a hot-bed, and when large enough to transplant, placed separately in pots of light loamy earth, then replunged into a moderate hot-bed to bring them forward, and in the month of June removed into a warm border, where, if the season prove favourable, they will flower very well towards August; but, as such seldom ripen their seeds, it will be proper to keep a few plants in the stove or greenhouse for that purpose, otherwise the species may be lost.

TRIFOLIUM halicacab.u.m. _Cam. Hort. 171. t. 47._

[Ill.u.s.tration: No 108]

An annual; the spontaneous growth of Spain, Italy, and Sicily, flowers in the open border in July, and ripens its seeds, in September.

Long since cultivated in our gardens, but more as a rare, or curious, than a beautiful plant.

Its seeds are to be sown in April, on a bed of light earth, where they are to remain; no other care is necessary than thinning them, and keeping them clear of weeds.
