chrysanthema

As the ſame ſynonym from Micheli is referred to by Linnæus under both C. achilleæ and C. italicum, and as no other ſynonym is quoted under either, it ſeems almoſt certain that he has, inadvertently, inſerted the ſame plant twice; and was, perhaps, leſs likely to detect the error, as, notwithſtanding the white ray of C. italicum, he was induced to place it among the chryſanthema, on account of the reſemblance of its foliage to ſme of the ſpecies of that diviſion.

Lofty forests of the chestnut, the pine, the laurel, and the oak, crown the hills, intermingled with the visnea, the olea, the myrica, the sideroxylon, the arbutus, the juniperus, and a vast quantity of ferns. It is in this region that we find the golden campanula, the chrysanthema, the hyperica, and a number of aromatic plants.

The gardener to the honourable Society of the Inner Temple, Mr. S. Broome, has this week published in the Times a very sensible letter on the advantages of improving the floral decorations of St. James’s Park. […] / “The majority of working men are passionately fond of flowers; and those who are fortunate enough to have a sunny spot of ground would take the Park as their guide what to plant in them. Few have an idea of the hundreds of poor men that are kept from public houses that have these little bits of gardens, and the interest they take in their flowers. I know it from experience. They come for miles to see the chrysanthema in November in the Temple Gardens. What’s to prevent the Parks from having a similar display?”

It was a fine clear morning late in the autumn, when the leaves were falling rapidly, and every breath of wind was followed by a plentiful shower of them; when all the flowers were gone from Mr. Ashton’s garden, except the chrysanthema and the Michaelmas daisies; when the nuts and blackberries had all disappeared, and there was nothing in the fields but stubble.

Gales of a disastrous character generally mark the close of November, if mild weather at the time. The chrysanthema and monthly rose help to illuminate the otherwise barren scene in the gardens, and the misle-thrush will sing boldly in stormy weather, hence his title of “the storm cock.”

Her name was Chrysanthema. This is the first step which materializes the ethereal form, and attaches it to the soil of earth. It is a serious thing to name a person. Chrystanthema Warwick was her completed name; […]
