Tropaeolum polyphyllum, Cav. Perennial, half-hardy: st. succulent, prostrate or climbing: lvs. peltate, orbicular, cut beyond the center into 7-9 narrow divisions: fls. much like T. majus in shape, but smaller; spur slender but rather short, the calyx-lobes triangular; petals obovate-cuneate, unguiculate, yellow, wavy or emarginate, the 2 upper ones streaked with red. Chile. St. naturally prostrate.—T. Leichtiinii, Hort. Garden hybrid between T. polyphyllum and T. leptophyllum (see suppl. list), raised by Max Leichtlin, of Baden-Baden. More closely approaching the former, but with larger lvs., more numerous and more vivid-colored fls. and said to be more hardy. CH
