 tion a very fcrambling appearance. Requires a dry foil and 

 a warm fuuation, being lefs hardy than the Garden Rocket, 

 and more fubjecl: to rot in the Winter, on which account 

 Miller recommends that fome plants mould be kept under 

 a frame during this feafon, as the fure way to preferve them. 

 Flowers in May and June. 



Cultivated by Miller in 1739, and perhaps more than a 

 century before, by Johnson the editor of Gerard's Herbal,, 

 though the leaves of his figure of Leucoium melancholicum 

 being jagged makes this doubtful.
