492 FOREST CULTURE AND 
ers for wreaths, just like those of H. orientale (Tourne- 
fort), from Candia, are largely grown and sold in South 
Europe to provide grave-wreaths. Furthermore, the 
lovely Helipterum Manglesii (F. v. M.), from West 
Australia, could for like purposes be profitably reared 
ona large scale, with several other Australian ever- 
lastings. Some South African species of Helichrysum 
and Helipterum are also highly eligible for these pur- 
poses of decoration. 
Hibiscus Ludwigii, Ecklon and Zeyher. — South 
Africa. <A tall, shrubby and highly ornamental spe- 
cies, desirable also as yielding a fiber of great strength 
and toughness. 
Hierochloe redolens, R. Brown. —Alps of Australia, 
Tasmania, New Zealand, Fuegia. Like other species 
of this genus, a valuable fodder-grass, of powerful and 
agreeable scent. It is one of the largest kinds. 
Holcus mollis, Linné.* — Of nearly the same geo- 
graphic range and utility as the preceding species. 
Holeus lanatus, Linné.* — Europe, North Africa, 
Middle Asia. A well-known and easily-disseminated 
perennial pasture- grass, of considerable fattening 
property. 
Holoptelea integrifolia, Planchon. (Ulmus integ- 
rifulia, Roxburgh.) — The Elm of India, extending 
from tke lowlands to sub-alpine regions. <A large 
tree, with timber of good quality. Foliage decidu- 
ous. 
Hydnum imbricatum, Linné. —In pine forests of 
Europe. A wholesome mushroom of delicious taste, 
which we should endeavor to naturalize in our pine 
plantations. Other recommendable European species 
are: H. erinaceum, Pers., H. coralloides, Scop., H.
