heat; the glasses must be frequently taken off* to give them air and dry them, or they are apt to damp off;
when they are rooted, the sooner they are potted oH' in little pots the better, as the sand is liable to canker their
roots if left too long in i t ; when potted off*, they should be placed in a close frame, but not on heat, as a bottom
heat will destroy their roots, when they must be hardened to the air by degrees. Plants raised in this way have
hotter roots, grow faster, and flower sooner than plants raised from seeds. In raising them from seeds they
should be sown in the same kind of soil as the plants are grown in, and placed in the green-house; or i f it is
in summer they will come up sooner if placed out in the open a i r ; they will soon make their appearance, when
they should be potted off* in small pots, for if left in the seed-pots too long they are apt to die, and are more
difficult to move with safety." {Iiot. Cult. 147.)

W a s named by Mr. It. Brown after the famous Jonas Dryandcr, whose catalogue of the
Banksian'library would alone be a monument of talent and industry, if his high botanical acquirements had
been unknown. This genus is allied in character and habits to Banksia. I t thrives best in very sandy loam
and peat in well drained pots. Cuttings made from ripened wood taken off*at a joint before they begin to push,
planted in sand without shortening any of the leaves, and covered with a glass, will root without difficulty. T h e
pots should not be plunged, and as soon as the cuttings are rooted they must be potted off', as the sand is apt to
injure their roots. Place them afterwards in a close frame or under hand-glasses till they strike root afresh,
and then harden them by degrees. (Sweet)
