annot be propagated by
division of the roots. He also found that out of 500 plants of a Phlox with
striped flowers, which had been propagated by root-division, only seven or
eight produced striped flowers. See also, on striped Pelargoniums, 'Gard.
Chron.' 1867, p. 1000.

[896] M. Carriere has lately described, in the 'Revue Horticole' (Dec. 1,
1866, p. 457), an extraordinary case. He twice inserted grafts of the _Aria
vestita_ on thorn-trees (_epines_) growing in pots; and the grafts, as they
grew, produced shoots with bark, buds, leaves, petioles, petals, and
flower-stalks all widely different from those of the Aria. The grafted
shoots were also much hardier, and flowered earlier, than those on the
ungrafted Aria.
