_ and stamens. 
but particularly in the length of the stamens, and the deep 
divisionof the style; in both which characters, it seems also 
to differ from all the other European species. 
Scuutres received specimens. of his mudtifora from 
M. Kirrarwer, who found it in Croatia. He describes the 
petioles as being the length of the leaves (25 inches) and 
hairy ; the width of the leaves frequently exceeding the 
length; the pedicles of the lower flowers as long as the 
reflexed calyx; the filaments capillary, smooth, and some- 
thing longer than the calyx ; characters which agree well 
with our plant, but not at all with spzcatum. Our plant 
was introduced by Mr. Howe, who writes that “he found it 
near the iron foundery between Brzaza and Ludwikuwka, 
and on the extensive mountainous estate of his much re- 
spected friend M. pp Margowskxt, a benevolent encourager 
of the arts, at the foot of the Gurgulat, on the chain of the 
Carpathian mountains, and in some other places ; but it is 
found only on the northern aspect of high mountains, 
above the first region, but where the Haze and Sameucus 
racemosa are still seattered.”” He never could find tbe fruit; 
which he attributes, to the numerous birds of passage that 
cross these mountains towards Greece at the season the 
fruit is ripe. | 
Mr. Howe saw the same, or a nearly related species, in 
Dr. Hosrs’ garden in Vienna, which he was informed came 
from Hungary. This was probably Kiramet’s plant. 
~ Communicated by Messrs. Wurrzey and Co. of the Ful- 
ham nursery, where it flowered freely in the open ground, 
in May last, but produced no fruit. May be propagated 
by cuttings, and seems to require no particular care.
