Example Sentences
- "Here and there on the river banks and coasts are a few Convolvulaceæ, not equal to our garden Ipomæas, and in the deepest shades of the forest some fine scarlet and purple Zingiberaceæ, but so few and scattered as to be nothing amid the mass of green and flowerless vegetation."
- "Vivid orchids and wonderful colored lichens smoldered upon the swarthy tree-trunks and where a wandering shaft of light fell full upon the golden allamanda, the scarlet star-clusters of the tacsonia, or the rich deep blue of ipomæa, the effect was as a dream of fairyland."
