Turner, Esq., of Rooksnest, Surrey, about 1810. The three varieties of 

 the Pgeony-flowered Camellia, viz. the Ponipone, the Red, and the Bkish, 

 are so much alike in habit, growth, and foliage, that, unless when in 

 flower, they cannot be distinguished. (See Vol. VI. p. 471.) 



20. Camell/« japonica rtlthaeaeflora, Hollyhock-flowered Japanese Ca- 

 mellia. Raised by Mr. Chandler of the Vauxhall nursery, in 1819, from 

 seeds of the Waratdh, which it in some respects resembles. Well deserv- 

 ing a place in every collection.

Part II. for Januari/, 1831, contains 



V. Design for a Public Garden near Bristol. By P. Masey, Jun. 



VI. Diagram of Cii'cles, representing all the different Natural Orders and 

 Tribes of Herbaceous Plants, according to the Jussieuean System, of 

 Sizes proportionate to the Quantity of Species and Varieties in each 

 Order and Tribe ; arranged for the Purpose of enabling Gardeners, 

 Architects, and Surveyors to compose Botanic Flower-Gardens. By 

 J. C. Loudon. 



VII. Diagram of Circles representing all the different Natural Orders of 

 Trees and Shrubs, according to the Jussieuean System, of Sizes pro- 

 portionate to the Quantity of Species and Varieties in each Order and 

 Tribe ; arranged for the purpose of enabling Gardeners, Architects, and 

 Surveyors to com[)ose Jussieuean Arboretums, Jussieuean Shrubberies 

 round Kitchen- Gardens, and to lay out or arrange all the Planting of a 

 Country Residence, according to this System, combined with pictorial 

 Effect. By J. C. Loudon. 



VIII. A Country Residence surrounded by Ten Acres of flat Surface, laid 

 out and planted according to the Natural System ; in which an attempt 

 is made to combine a Maximum of botanical Interest, pictorial Effect, 

 useful Accommodation, and elegant Convenience, in a Minimum of 

 Space of natural Advantages. By J. C. Loudon. 



The two Parts of this work just completed may be considered as 

 elementary, and containing, in a great measure, the essence of all that is to 

 follow. Plate VIII., and its description, show what a world of botanical 

 enjoyment and varied picturesque effect may be obtained in a spot of only 

 10 acres, laid out as a country residence. I3ut the enjoyment in this case, 

 as in every other, will depend on the mind of the enjoyer : if he is without 

 a knowledge or taste for plants, and can see no beauty in the grouping and 

 massing of trees, such a spot, so laid out, will be in a great measure lost on 

 him. The poetry of all nature and art lies in the mind. 



When we commenced this work, knowing that it would have a very 

 limited sale, and that gardeners could not purchase it unless it were very low 

 priced, we undertook its publication on our own account ; and not foresee- 

 ing all the expenses which we should have to incur, we fixed the price much 

 too low. We cannot adhere to that price for Part II., which may be pur- 

 chased by gardeners for IQs.dd. till the 1st of April next; but, after that 

 period, the price to gardeners and all others will be 15.9. each for Part II., 

 and that price {\os^) will commence for Part I. on February. 1. Future
