all. Some plants, which were kept in the cool 
ereenhouse with Pinus longifolia, are still thriving, 
and have borne many cones, agreeing exactly with 
those which I brought from Madeira, and with 
those figured in Lambert’s work. The figure in 
that work is indeed in all respects very good. 
(October, 1869). These last mentioned trees 
are still doing well, being protected every winter, 
and set out during the summer. 
(March, 1877). All our plants of Cupressus 
glauca or lusitanica are now dead; those men- 
tioned in my last note (which were sheltered 
during the winter) dwindled more gradually than 
the others, but died one after another. It may be 
safely said that this beautiful tree will not bear 
our climate—at least in this part of England. If 
it be, as it is said, a native of Western India, near 
Goa, it is surprising that it should have borne 
even one of our winters without protection.
