Text Appearing Before Image:
n the sense in which arose or a carnation is double. In the case of these latter plantsthe stamens change to petals; in the composites the corollas ofthe small disk-florets, which are normally tubular, are cliangedinto strap-shaped corollas, similar to those of the ray flowers.It is very likely that this change might be brought about in ourGaillardia. So far as we know, our species has only been found in Texas,where it grows in sandy, gravelly soil along the Brazos. Tliehome of the whole genus, indeed, seems to be in Texas and thedry territory immediately to the north and west of that state. Under cultivation the plant continues in bloom from Juneuntil frost sets in. Explanation of thf. Plate. — i. Flower-shoot terminated by a half-mature head.—2. Flower-shoots in full bloom. (NOTE. — We have had room in the plate only for the upper portion of the flower-stems.The lower and younger would probably be more hirsute, and the leaves more denticulate thanshown in the plate.) Plate 47.
