JAMESONIA. J. imbricata and its varieties all 
succeed well under greenhouse treatment. A compost 
of an open nature made of two parts fibrous peat, one part 
chopped sphagnum, and one part silver-sand, snits them 
best. They require copious watering at the roots, bunt 
should not be syringed overhead. Propagation is usually 
effected by division of the rhizomes, but they may 
also be increased by spores, which are abundantly 
produced, and germinate freely when sown in a warm 
temperature. Not being of a very decorative character, 
these Ferns, though thoroughly distinct, are not extensively 
found in private collections; their culture is generally 
limited to botanic gardens. 
To the species described on p. 
tollowing varieties should be added : 
J. imbricata canescens (hoary). fronds, upper part so 
densely clothed with long, yellowish-brown hairs as to quite

pinne sin. long, oblong, densely hairy beneath, with revolute 
edges. Andes of Ecuador (at 10,000ft.).

Yin. long, 4in. broad; pinne oblong-triangular, naked; rachis 
covered with very short down.
