All whitish-flowered evergreens. Sometimes
by seeds sown immediately they are ripe, in a
slight hotbed ; generally by suckers, but also at
times from young shoots that branch from the
stems ; deep, dry, sandy loam is their favourite
soil ; a few require the assistance of a stove or
greenhouse, but most of them stand the open
air in England. Aloifolia is, perhaps, the
tenderest of all the hardy ones. They flourish
near the sea shore. We may add that they
seem quite at home on a knoll, or on rock-work.
