298 REMARKS ON THE PINETUM AT KEILOUR, PERTHSHIRE. 
there have been many failures both with Mr. Smyth and Mr. 
Thomson, I think it may be useful to record them. Amongst these were 
In 1860, In 1862. 
Abies Douglasti . 49 ft. 6 іп. high 48 ft. x 4 ft. 2 in. 
A. Menziesst D AT.ÍTE 983 ft. x 8 ft. 
Pinus monticola —.. 88 ft. 394 ft. x 4 ft. 
Picea nobilis н JE 334 ft. x 2ft. 3 in, 
P. Pichta . 905% 30 ft. x 3 ft, 
A. Douglasii was raised from seeds in 1831, and I have no doubt would 
have been a far larger tree if it had not been blown over when about 18 ft. 
high, and was propped for several years, A. Menziesii lost its leader in 
1860; its spreading branches cover a diameter of 40 feet. 
north-west is planted with P. sylvestris and Laria europea, raised from 
seeds collected in Braemar and Invercauld; while there is a belt of 
P. sylvestris, from German seed, and a few plants from Scandinavian.
