CONIPERZ: 
It is probable that the Adbzes apollinis of Link, 
which Endlicher considers as a variety of the Silver 
Fir, with sharp pointed leaves, is nearly but not - 
quite the same with Abies cephalonica; for according 
to Link’s description, quoted by Endlicher,* the 
leaves are “‘turned to two sides”? as in the 
common Silver Fir; whereas in the Cephalonica 
they spread in various directions. This Abies 
apollinis, according to Link, forms woods on the 
mountains of Greece between the elevations of 
3000 and 4000 feet, especially on Parnassus, 
Taygetus, CEta, and Olympus.

repairing the loss, and otherwise looks very 
healthy ; the other a younger plant in a more 
sheltered situation in the Vicarage Grove, is 
exceedingly thriving; it grew 11} inches in the 
course of the year 1862.
