*' A common bush on the banks of streams, near Indian 

 villages, on the north-west coast of America, from 45*^ to 

 52'' north latitude. 



*' This species flowered last April in the Horticultural 

 Society's Garden. It ranks systematically next R. tri- 

 florum of Willdenow." — Douglas in Hort. Trans. 7. 515. 



To this account by Mr. Douglas, we have only to add, 

 that it proves a hardy shrub, and increases freely by 

 cuttings.
