It thrives best in a rather rich soil, and is perfectly hardy; it is also a freeflowering plant, and may be readily propagated from seeds or oflfsets; but, unlikemost of the other species of the genus, it is deciduous.

The specific name is given in honour of Dr. Von Siebold, by whom it is said tohave been introduced.

Of this latter class is theplant now before us, which, though it does not possess that brilliancy of colour andboldness of habit so remarkable in some species of Pentstemon, &c
