NEW GARDEN PLANTS OF THE YEAR 1900. 
The number of garden plants annually described in ight as 
and horticultural publications, both English and foreign, is n 
so considerable that it has been thought desirable to abIShHt a 
complete list of them in the Kew Bulletin each year. The 
followizg list comprises all the new introductions recorded during 
1900. These lists are indispensable to the maintenance of a 
correct nomenclature, especially in the smaller botanical estab- 
lishments in correspondence with Kew, which are, as a rule, 
only scantily provided with horticultural periodicals. Such a 
botanic gardens. 
The present list includes not a plants brought into cultivation 
for the first time during 1900, but the most noteworthy of those 
which have been re-introduced after being lost from cultivation. 
Other plants included in the list may have been in gardens for 
several years, but either were not deseribed or their names had 
not been authenticated until recently. 
In addition to species and well-marked varieties, hybrids, 
whether introduced or of garden origin, have been inc cluded 
where they have been described with formal botanical names. 
Mere cultural forms of well-known garden plants are omitted, 
for obvious reasons. 
In every case the plant is cited under its published name, 
although some of the names are doubtfully correct. Where, 
however, a correction has appeared desirable, this is made. 
The name of the person in whose coca the = was ee 
noticed or aaiebod is given where
