App. V. List of a few of the larger Specimens of exotic Heaths, 
cultivated in the Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh ; with their 
Dimensions, &c., as taken from the Plants, 12th July, 1836. 
Communicated by Mr. M‘Nab. 
The use of this list is, to give an idea of what height the species will attain, if planted against a con- 
servative wall. In ail probability, they would attain double the height, planted in the ground, and 
trained to a wall, of what they do as standards in pots or tubs in a glazed ome The wall ought to 
have an eastern or western aspect; in order to moderate the temperature of the hotter summer 
months, and to avoid the direct influence of the sun in spring and autumn, when the plants are 
covered with hoar-frost. The plants in the Edinburgh Botanic Garden are all known as Erice, 
though we have given them Mr. Don’s new names; but those who do not approve of these ap- 
pellations, have only to substitute the word Erica for the new ‘generic name, the specific names 
generally not having been changed ; where both names have been changed, we have given the old 
ones in parentheses,
