OF THE HALF-HARDY PLANTS OF THE ORDER MYOPO’RINE. 
Myéporum parvifdlium R. Br., Bot. Mag., t. 1691., is a native of New Holland, with trailing stems 
and small white fowers, which are produced in great profusion nearly all the year. A plant 
against our conservative wall at Bayswater lived four years, producing shoots of 5 ft. or 6ft. in 
length in one season, which were most beautifully covered with flowers. The plant grows 
so rapidly, that we have no doubt it would cover many square yards of wall in a very short period. 
There are other species of the genus having the same habit of growth, more particularly M. 
oppositifilium R. Br., M. diffusum R, Br., and M. adscéndens R. Br.

OF THE HALF-HARDY PLANTS BELONGING TO THE ORDER 
GLOBULARIA‘CER. 
Globuldria longifolia L.; G. salicina Lam., Bot. Reg., 
t.659.; and our fig. 1155.; is a native of Madeira, with 
long, dark green, shining leaves, and white flowers, 
which are produced in July and August. It was in- 
troduced in 1775; and grows to the height of 3 ft. or 
4ft. in pots, and, doubtless, twice that height, or more, 
against a conservative wall. 
G. Aljpum L., Gar. Aix, fig. 42.,the alypo globularia, 
is a native of the south of Europe, which has been in 
cultivation in British gardens since 1640. It is a pretty 
little evergreen shrub, growing to the height of 2 ft., 
about Aix and Montpelier; and producing its pale 
bluish flowers in August and September. Like all the 
plants from that part of Europe, it is easily protected 
in British gardens in a cold frame, surrounded by turf 
walls or litter, and covered with mats during severe 
frosts, It might, therefore, be readily protected on dry 
rockwork in a warm situation, or at the base of a con- 
servative wall. There is a variety, G. A. infegrifolium, 
a native of the same climate, which is distinguished 
from the species by having entire leaves.

OF THE HALF-HARDY PLANTS OF THE ORDER PLUMBAGINA‘CE®, 
Stdtice monopétala L., Boe. Sic., t. 16., is a native of Sicily, where it grows to the height of 3 ft., and 
produces its fine bluish purple flowers in July and August. S. suffruticdsa L. is a native of Siberia, 
which seldom exceeds 1 ft. in height. Both these species are very suitable for conservative rockwork. 
Plumbigo capénsis Thunb., Bot. Reg., t.417., is a native of the Cape of Good Hope, with light 
blue flowers, which it produces in great profusion throughout the summer; and, though it isseldom 
seen above 5ft. in height in green-houses, yet we have seen it reach the top of a wall 10 ft. or 12 ft. 
high, at Bishopstoke Vicarage, in Hampshire. (See Gard. Mag., vol. x. p. 130.)

OF THE HARDY LIGNEOUS PLANTS OF THE ORDER CHENOPODIA‘CER. 
Tue hardy ligneous species of this order have whitish or glaucous foliage, 
and small flowers of nearly the same colour: the latter have not a corolla, 
and are not showy. They are included in three genera; the names and cha- 
racteristics of which are as follows: —
