Bixa orellana, Linn. Annatto-tree. Height 30 ft.: Lvs. cordate: fls. pinkish or rose-color. B.M.1456.—It is rarely grown in northern greenhouses as an ornamental. Cuttings taken from a flowering plant will produce flowering plants of a convenient size. Plants from seed usually flower less freely, and must attain a greater size before flowering.
