" It has seldom," says Sir W. J. Hooker, " been our good 

 fortune to figure a more interesting plant than the one here 

 given ; or one that, at first sight, would appear less to belong 

 to the very natural genus of which it is, in my opinion, un- 

 doubtedly a member, — Impatiens." Sent by William Nimmo, 

 Esq., from Bombay, in 1835.

•orbicularis Lindl. xoxiwl-kaved ^ A or | jn.jl P Carifornia 1835 R p.I Dot. reg. 1971. 



" A hardy herbaceous plant, with long, tough, slender, creep- 

 ing stems, from which the leaves spring upon stalks about 6 in. 

 long. It is remarkable for the numerous dark glands, which are 

 mingled with soft hairs, all over its surface, and which resemble 

 the kind of nails which upholsterers call tacks." {Bat. Reg.y 

 July.)

A hardy shrub, of moderately robust habit, forming a hand- 

 some bush, 3ft. or upwards in height; first introduced by Messrs. 

 Young of Epsom. (Flor. Mag., July.) 



1962. SPA'RTIUM 17468 ^unceum 



*odoratissimum U. Don itt or 4 jl.s Y Persia 1834 S co Swt. Br. fl.-gard 390. 



A spreading branching shrub, with long, filiform, rush-like, 

 green branches ; the younger ones silky. This variety is distin- 

 guished by its more slender and spreading habit, more silky leaves 

 and shoots, and smaller fragrant flowers. Raised by the Rev. 

 Mr. Duke of Lake House, near Salisbury, from seeds stated to 

 have come from Persia. (Swt. Br. Fl.-Gard., July.) 



17468a *acutif61ium Lindl. sharp-leaved 36 or 6 jl.s Y Turkey 1836 S co Bot. reg. 



Whether this is more than a variety of the Spanish broom, 

 Dr. Lindley cannot say. It was raised in the garden of the 

 Horticultural Society, from Turkish seeds. The leaves are not 

 only longer and taper-pointed, instead of being rounded at the 

 point, but the racemes are more lax, and the manner of growth 

 far more graceful; otherwise it is like the Spanish broom. {Bot. 

 Reg., July.)

" A hardy herbaceous plant, introduced by the Horticultural 

 Society from California. It is not a horticultural plant, being 

 too weedy to offer any reasonable probability of being improved 

 by culture; but it is interesting to botanists, as an evidence of the 

 extent to which species vary permanently in their wild state."
