1 35 Notes and Gleanings. 



Anopetalmn, a Lirge-growing, dark green stone-crop, which does not appear 

 to bloom at the same time as those previously mentioned. 



Collinum. — This makes a much neater and prettier growth than 5". anopcta- 

 him. 



Scxangiilare is another large form of S. acre. 



Ochroleiicum is somewhat like the former in growth ; but the flowers are a 

 kind of stone-color. 



Pallidum. — This is a distinct sort : the color of the flowers is a pale reddish- 

 brown. 



Pulchellum is the smallest I have seen of this section, and is certainly very 

 pretty. 



Sect. 3. — Macrant/uan has long stems ; the leaves grayish, and turning red- 

 dish with age. 



Monsirosum is a very peculiar sort : it is of a very dark green, and grows in 

 the form of a cockscomb. 



BeyrichiamiiJi is a pretty, small, flat-growing kind. 



Sieboldii and Sieboldii variegatum are both fine for rockwork ; especially the 

 latter, which is one of the best of the genus. 



Azureum is a fine, free, spreading sort. The flowers of this also look well, 

 as they are bluish. 



Altissimum is of long growth ; the leaves fleshy, of a grayish color. 



KamtscJiaticum and Braunii are very much alike. They are of a very dark 

 green, and spread very quickly. 



Ca7-7ie7ivi variegatum. — A very pretty variety, with variegated leaves. 



Anacampseros has flat, glaucous-green leaves, and is fine. 



De)itatum and dentictilatian are both good. The latter is of rather longer 

 growth than the former. They are both dark green. 



Forsterianitm is pretty and distinct, having long shoots thickly studded with 

 fleshy-pointed leaves. 



Glaucum Stnithii is of closer growth than the former, and of a more glaucous 

 hue. 



Neglectum. — Very distinct and pretty, resembling a mesembryanthemum in 

 growth. 



Populifolium is bush-like in its growth, and has very pretty leaves. It is 

 very distinct. 



Spcciosum has long stems and round leaves, and is a good and useful kind. 



InvolucratujH partakes somewhat of the character of /^^.'r/a/w, but is of much 

 closer habit. 



Sect. 4. — Fabaria has large heads of white flowers. Those of Fabaria rii- 

 brum and Telephium are purple. 



These are very useful, coming into bloom in the autumn. The first two are 

 the best, as they are two months later in flowering than Telephium ; and do not 

 grow so tall, scarcely ever exceeding a foot in height. The best way to treat 

 them is to plant them out in the garden, and take them up and pot them just as 

 they are coming into bloom ; which will be about October. They will be very 

 useful when flowers are becoming scarce. — Journal of Horticulture.
