=Anamenia.= See Knowltonia. =Ananas.= See Pine Apple. =Anantherix.= _Asclepiadeæ._ Increased by seeds, which ripen in abundance, or by division of the root. =Anarrhinum.= _Scrophularineæ._ Propagated by seeds sown outside in the spring, or by growing cutting, but they require protection during severe winters. =Anastatica.= _Cruciferæ._ Increased by seeds sown in the spring in heat, and the plants afterwards potted off and plunged again in heat to hasten their growth. =Anchietea=, Lucinæa, Noisettia. _Violarieæ._ Propagated by young cuttings, which root freely in sand, under a bell-glass, in a moderate heat. =Anchomanes.= _Aroideæ._ Propagated by seeds and offsets. =Anchusa.= _Boragineæ._ Propagated by seeds, which should be sown in early spring in pots of sandy soil; they will germinate in three or four weeks. Also by divisions, rarely by cuttings. =Andersonia.= _Epacrideæ._ Propagated by cuttings from tips of young shoots. These should be made in autumn, winter or spring, and planted in sand in a gentle heat, with a bell-glass over them. =Andreusia.= See Myoporum. =Androcymbium.= _Liliaceæ._ Increased by seeds and offsets. =Andromeda.= _Ericaceæ._ Propagated by seeds, sown thinly as soon as ripe, in pots or pans, in sandy peat soil. Place in a cool frame or greenhouse giving plenty of air. The young plants should be planted out in spring, if large enough, or pricked into boxes if small. By layers which, if carefully pegged down during September, will take twelve months to make sufficient roots to allow of their being separated; layerage is a common method. =Andropogon.= _Gramineæ._ Increased by seeds or by division of the roots. =Androsace=, including Aretia. _Primulaceæ._ Propagated by seeds, which should be sown as soon as possible, and raised in a frame; also by divisions and cuttings. =Androsæmum.= See Hypericum. =Androstephium.= _Liliaceæ._ Propagated by seeds and offsets. The seeds should be sown as soon as ripe in a cold-frame. =Andryala.= _Compositæ._ Increased by seeds and divisions in spring. =Aneilema.= _Commelinaceæ._ Propagated by seeds and root divisions. =Anemia.= See Ferns. =Anemone= (Wind Flower). _Ranunculaceæ._ Propagated by seeds, root divisions, or root-cuttings in autumn or early spring; the seeds are better sown as soon as ripe in pans, in a cold-frame. =Anemonopsis.= _Ranunculaceæ._ Increased by seeds, and by divisions of the root-stock in spring. =Angelica.= _Umbelliferæ._ Increased by seeds, which should be sown in September or March in ordinary soil. =Angelonia=, Schelveria. _Scrophularineæ._
