LIST OF NEW AND RARE PLANTS. 



Hvdrotjma meleagris— From Mexico. It has the appearance of a Ti- 

 gridia bearing the flower of a Frittilary ; the flower stem rises half a yard 

 high, and the spathe contains tour or five flowers, which are exceedingly 

 fugitive, and extremely delicate, so as to scarcely bear touching, but being 

 immersed in spirits of wine become tough, and like fine parchment ; it has 

 bloomed in the collection of John Rogers, Esq Jun., Seven Oaks, Kent. 



Cynoglossum grandiflorum — Seeds of which were sent from Bombay ; 

 it is an herbaceous plant, growing a yard high, producing upon the branch-' 

 ing stems racemes of fine bright blue flowers edged.with white, havin"- a 

 very pretty appearance. 



Morrenia odouata— From Buenos Ayres ; in the greenhouse it blooms 

 from July to September, it is a twining plant, the flowers having a resem- 

 blance to, and fragrance of Perguluria odoratissima ; it has been introduced 

 by the Hon. W. F. Strangeways. 



Calystegia sepitjm— From New Holland. Very much like the common 

 large flowered Bindweed of this country, only the flowers are pink and some- 

 what larger; it has bloomed in the garden of the London Horticultural 

 Society. 



R*peria aurantiaca— From New Holland. The flowers are rather small 

 of an orange yellow colour; it has been in bloom in the open border (in the 

 garden of the London Horticultural Society) since the commencement of 

 July. 



Psoralea cinerea — An annual from New Holland. The flowers are 

 rather small, of a purplish colour, not very interesting. 



Pimelea crinita— From Swan River Colony. It has recently bloomed 

 in the fine collection of Robert Mangles, Esq., Sunning Hill, Berks- the 

 flowers are white, having something of the fragrance of the Heliotropium. 



Campanula carpatica alba. The well known showy blue flowered 

 species, has now a rival in a white flowered hybrid, and when grown in 

 contrast, would have a fine effect in the flower bed ; every flower garden 

 ought to have both kinds, and only growing from one to two feet high ; it is 

 recommended for any situation however exposed. 



Pentstemon antwerpensis.— The whole plant in its foliage, spikes of 

 flowers, &c, have mnch the resemblance of P birbatum, (Synonym Chelono 

 barbata) excepting the difference in colour of the blossoms, which in this 

 new species are of a cream colour tinged with pale rose, and have a delicate 

 appearance. There is also a variety with pure white blossoms of? barbatum 

 in flower at Mr. Young's, Epsom Nursery.
