Plants extremely local. 



Dryas octopetala. — On Arncliff, Clowder, in Littendale; 

 and near Settle, Yorkshire ; and Cronkley Fell *. 



Gentiana verna. — Found in Teesdale* in most surprising 

 quantities, and, luckily, cannot be extirpated, in consequence 

 of its sending out innumerable runners, each of which becomes 

 a plant on digging up specimens. Gardeners from all parts of 

 England have visited this spot, and attempted its destruction, 

 after removing quantities for sale. — Goths indeed ! 



Cypripedium Calceolus. — In several parts of Craven, York- 

 shire; Castle Eden Dean, Durham; Borough Hall Park, 

 Lancashire. 



The Ladies' Slipper used to be found in tolerable plenty 

 about Ingleborough ; the greediness of florists has, however, 

 rendered it scarce. The great secret in its cultivation appears 

 to be rest. A poor man in Craven has made a considerable 

 sum annually by the sale of this plant : he possesses a small 

 garden surrounded with gooseberry trees ; in the centre, he 

 planted some years ago some plants of the Cypripedium Calceo- 

 lus; they were left undisturbed for a long period, and have 

 filled the garden, flowering freely, and flourishing under the 

 partial shade of the gooseberry-bushes. 

 Leeds, Oct. 1823. 



* Cronkley Fell is often cited as in Durham, but certainly on the York 

 ride of the Tees.
