ARCTOTIS GRAXDIS. 1216 A remarkably handsome new annual from Southwest Africa, and one which we believe will succeed admirably in our climate ; it forms much-branched bushes 2 to 3 feet high, by as much through ; the foliage is soft and downy and of a whitish color ; its flowers borne on long stems, rising well above the foliage, are large and showy, from 2i to 3 inches across ; the ray florets pure white on the upper surface, embellished with a narrow yellow zone at their base ; the reverse of petals pale lilac-blue; the disc is light blue with slightly projecting white stamens ; altogether a lovely flower. Of the easiest culture and flowering in constant succession from early summer until late fall.
