 Some British botanists seem to be doubtful as to the position of this in 

 their flora, but the circumstances under which it appears in the neigh- 

 bourhood of Plymouth mark it out as only a naturalized species, not 

 found away from human habitations, and generally associated with other 

 plants belonging either to the Alien or Denizen class. Its old reputation 

 for curing affections of the eyes has not quite passed away m our rural 

 districts ; for I a few years ago heard an old countryman greatly laud its 

 virtue, and speak of the benefit he had himself derived from its use in 

 an eye complaint. Jour. Bot. i. N. S. 260. Though often found only in 

 small quantity at any one spot, it is nevertheless remarkably persistent 

 at its stations.
