The power of the prepared metal is great, and so strongly attracts and retains heat, that it renders the surrounding atmosphere quite cold. One hour in the sun is sufficient to bring leaves from the Luania. The metal covering is then removed, and the vases are placed under a forcing-glass, the power of which is doubled on the second day, and further increased on the third.
In the following year, but not before, the flower blossoms again, and falls in like manner. The seeds of the Luania do not mature for three years, that is to say, until after the flower has blossomed three times; but we have, however, the means of producing flowers from the seeds in three days.
There is a highly beautiful flower called Luania, a name of which the approximate translation is the soirée or "assembly" flower. Its colours are most brilliant, but its blossom only lasts about ten hours. When that short term has expired, the leaves fall, and nothing remains but a small pod, containing seeds.
