TREES IN IRELAND 217 



In a future edition of this work, if it be called for, 

 the gardens of Ireland in relation to the trees and 

 shrubs that are grown therein will receive greater 

 justice than it is possible to give at present, owing to 

 the number of rare and tender species and varieties 

 that are at home in the sister Isle. Ireland has two 

 interesting Botanic gardens, one attached to Trinity 

 College, Dublin, of which Mr. F. W. Burbidge, M.A., 

 is the well-known curator, and the other at Glasnevin. 

 This is under the care of Mr. F. W. Moore and is 

 exceptionally beautiful. Both contain rare trees and 

 shrubs, but the terrific storm in the early part of 

 1903 wrought sad havoc.
