. Our garden flowers; a popular study of their native lands, their life histories, and their structural affiliations. Flowers. TRAILING HOLLYHOCK Calyx.—Bell-shaped, nerved, winged, five-cleft, surrounded by an involucre of several linear, hairy bractlets; in fruit the calyx becomes inflated and bladdery. Corolla.—Five petals connected at the base, pale-yellow with a maroon eye. Stamens.—United into a reddish tube, with anthers along its length; anthers kidney-shaped, yellow; styles united in a tube; stigmas, five, red, protruding beyond the tube of stamens. Pod.—Five-celled, enclosed in a bladdery husk. Flower-of-an-Hour seems to belong to no man's land; perhaps one might say that it appears sooner or later in every garden, but is rarely welcomed and in fact usually uprooted. Native to the lands bor- dering the desert, the blossoms seem to translate into form the burning heat of the noonday sun, and when the sun's direct rays are withdrawn, even temporarily, the corolla closes. Consequently the fJower is either a hope or a disappointment, according as one looks at it in the morning or in the afternoon, for once closed it never opens again. Gumbo, Hibiscus esculentus, is a mallow of the vegetable gar- den. The mucilaginous properties of the family, in this species, are especially stored in the pod, which is three to four inches long and, when green, is commonly used to thicken soups. The leaves are iive-lobed, rounded, and cordate; the flowers mallows of greenish-yellow with a dark eye.. Flower-of-an-Hour. Hibiscus tribnum 291.
