Calandrinia umbellata, DC. Perennial, 4-6 in.: Ivs. linear and hairy: fls. in a corymb, or umbel-like terminal cluster, bright crimson. Peru. R.H. 1853:5.—The C. umbellata of gardens is hardy in many parts of the U. S.; in New York it should be planted in a well-sheltered position, or provided with ample protection in winter; sometimes it acts like the biennials, but, as seeds are produced very freely, young seedlings spring up constantly between the old plants, and one does not miss the few which may decay during the second year; the plant forms a very neat, slightly spreading tuft; fls. are produced in many-fld. umbels, terminal, numerous, and large, glowing crimson-magenta, saucer-shaped, very showy. June to Nov. Full exposure to sun, and light sandy soil, are needed to bring out the rare beauty of these plants. The fls. close up when evening comes, like the annual portulacas, but they reopen on the following day. In the sunny sloping part of a rockery, even when quite dry, or among other low plants in a bed or border, they are highly satisfactory. Although perennial, it may also be treated like the annuals, as it flowers the first summer as freely as afterwards. Can be prop. by cuttings.{{SCH}}<br />
