NOTE. 



To such as feel disposed to study or cultivate these 

 interesting tribes of Plants, I would recommend a 

 visit, whenever that can be accomplished, to the 

 Botanical Gardens of Edinburgh or Glasgow, or the 

 Experimental Gardens of the former city, where 

 they are arranged according to the Linnaean and 

 Natural Systems, in diiferent compartments, so as 

 to permit of their respective habits and forms being 

 examined. The nursery establishments of the same 

 cities, always keep a supply of them in pots or in 

 the open ground, where collections may be had at 

 various prices; and other information, regarding the 

 materials and soil suitable for the formation of 

 Rock-work, obtained. Those who are botanists do 

 not require to be informed, that many of these in- 

 teresting plants are natives of the mountains, bogs, 

 and woods, of our own country.
