 especially on tlie Mendips. VI. VIII. 



576. V. hybrida, L. 



Native ; on tbe more inaccessible ledges of St. Vincent's 

 Rocks, still plentiful. 



Although there appears to be no important character to 

 separate T^. hybrida from V. spicata, L., yet it is 

 generally considered that our plants and those of the 

 AVelsh coast belong to the former. This is the most 

 handsome of our native Veronicas. It attains its 

 southern limit in this country on St. Vincent's Rocks, 

 where it flourishes in great luxuriance and beauty, the 

 plants being at least as large again as those we have 

 seen on the Great Ormshead. VII. — VIH.

 very common. IV. — VII. 



(V. triphyllos, L. Dr. Stephens informed Mr. Flower that 

 Swete's record for this plant " about Stapleton Mill " 

 was an error.)
