cultivation. His book consists of an account of the genera and 

 best-linown species which are either akeady in use or might with 

 advantage be brought into use for horticuUural purposes. The 

 arrangement adopted is that of Engler & Prantl's Pflanzeufamilien, 

 from which also some illustrations have been borrowed. Many of 

 the figures, which are chiefly to give an idea of the habit of the 

 plant, are new, and on the whole good, especially those of Iris 

 Fseudacorus on p. 89, and the Orchises on p. 93. We are glad to 

 note in the accounts of individual genera and species that reference 

 is made to their geographical distribution and the nature of their 

 habitat. It must add greatly to the interest of plant-cultivation to 

 know a little about the native homes of one's specimens. Herr 

 Monkemeyer's book will doubtless prove a welcome addition to the 

 library both of the amateur and professional horticulturist.
