Stigmaphyllon ciliatum, A. Juss. A tender woody twining vine: lvs. evergreen, smooth, opposite, cordate, ciliate: fls. bright yellow, large, in peduncled axillary clusters of 3-6.—Apparently the only species in the trade and possibly the handsomest of the genus. G. W. Oliver says that S. ciliatum is one of the best medium-sized vines for outdoor trellis-work. For pot culture it is of little service and thrives in the greenhouse only when planted out. Sept. is the best month for prop. On outdoor plants much of the wood is useless for this purpose, being thin and soft. Choose the wood made early in the season; a heel or joint is not necessary; root in bottom heat and carry through the winter in the greenhouse as small plants. It is said that in S. Calif. it must have shade, protection from dry or hot winds, and an open soil. Under the right conditions it flowers admirably. CH
