Montanoa (Montano, a Mexican statesman). Sometimes spelled Montagnaea. Compositae. Shrubs or even small trees, pot-plants being used sometimes for subtropical bedding and for winter bloom; somewhat allied botanically to Rudbeckia. Strong mostly robust plants, mostly pubescent or tomentose: lvs. opposite, entire, dentate or even pinnatifid: heads small or medium, corymbose-paniculate, heterogamous, radiate; ray-florets neutral, in 1 series; disk-florets perfect but the innermost sterile; receptacle convex or conical, with carinate scales about the fls.; corolla white or rose-colored.—About 20 species, Mex. to Colombia. They are of easy cult.; the seeds are started indoors and the plants may be transferred to the open for foliage effects, as are melianthus, the large solanums and others; prop. also by cuttings. Several of the species are likely to appear in collections in subtropical gardens.
