SYNGENESIA. POLYGAMIA SUPBRFLUA. Natural Order. CORYMBIFEREjE. Native of C. G. Hope. Height. 2 feet. Flowers in June, Oct. Duration. Annual. Cultivated in 1700. No. 40. Senecio, from the Latin senex, an old man; a name which has been given to it from the fancied resemblance of its seed down to the grey or silvery head of age. Elegans, elegant. The seed of this plant is usually sold under the name of Jacobaea, which term has been handed down from some old botanists, who called it Flos Sancti Jac...obi, or the flower of Saint James. The Senecio elegans may be raised from seeds, sown with other hardy annuals in the spring, and requires no peculiar care. The double one, which is merely a variety of the same, is an extremely beautiful plant ; and although it does not come within our limits as a hardy one, we may be pardoned the union of it with its syno- nymous species. It is usually cultivated in pots, as an ornament for the house, yet few plants are better adapted for giving assistance to the brilliancy of the flower border, where, during the summer months, it will grow with greater luxuriance and beauty than in any other situation.
