 the Knyghtwood Oak, where Mr. Rake 

 and myself saw it in great abundance, 

 July 11, 1862. In all the.sc localities it 

 is confined to the light sand, growing 

 especially amongst the common brake, 

 and seldom, if ever, extends into the 

 heather, which grows close round. On 

 some specimens which I fonvarded, 

 Mr. Watson observes, in speaking of the 

 distinction between Gladiolus tinhri- 

 catus and lUyricus : — "The New Forest 

 plant has the obovate capsules, hardly 

 so much keeled, however, as dcscriljcd 

 by French botanists, unless the keel 

 becomes sharper with advancing age.'"
