chatus minor, N. candidissimus of Red.), I obtained seed 

 both from it and A. minor by the pollen of fig. 3. The pollen 

 of N. montanus however readily fertilizes Ajax and Narcissus. 

 JN. dubms in its wild state is two or three-flowered, and in a 

 weak one-flowered state was the N. pumilus of Redoute, of 

 which no trace can now be discovered. 



I have flowered also the produce of a yellow Aiax bv 

 jonquill raised by J. T. Alcock, Esq. which had precisely the 

 foliage and flower of N. odorus v. calathinus minor, Am. 314. 

 which ' variety (and not the larger as there stated) is the Cam- 

 pernelli of Haworth. I have raised younger plants of like 

 breed from various sorts of Ajax, shewing the foliage of odo- 

 rus, which have not yet flowered. I have also flowered what 

 i may call JN. Ajax semiqueltia, a single seedling from A. 

 pseudonarcissus v Eboracensis by pollen of Q. incomparabilis, 

 a very neat Ajax-hke plant, of which the cup is rather ventri- 

 cose below, and compressed about the middle, with a regular 

 crenate margin and of the filaments three are inserted just
