Of the various discoveries that have resulted from the 

 journey of Mr. Douglas to the north-west coast of America, 

 the new species of Lupinus and Pentstemon will probably 

 be found the most interesting to the cultivator, in con- 

 sequence of the great beauty and variety of their forms, 

 and their hardy habits. Natives of a country, the mean 

 temperature of which is supposed to be very like that of 

 Great Britain, they seem as well adapted to our climate 

 as to their own, and flourish as gaily on the fertile margin
