Martynia

Martynia - M. lutea is a pretty Brazilian annual, about 1 1/2 feet high, with large roundish leaves and handsome yellow flowers in clusters, useful for beds, groups, and borders. It requires a light, rich, cool soil, a warm place, and frequent watering in summer. M. fragrans, another species, has sweet-scented flowers, and, under similar conditions, thrives in the open air in summer. It is best in rich borders or among groups or beds of curious or distinct plants. Seed.
