 Nat. ord., Cornels [Cornacese]. Linii., 

 4-Tetrandria \-Monogynia.} 



Hardy evergreen shrubs. Layers; seeds where 

 procurable; loam; does in a sheltered place. 

 B.frugi'fera (strawberry-fruited). 10. Yellow- 

 ish-red. August. Nepaul. 1825. 



Japo'nica (Japanese). Japan. 1847. 



It is doubtful whether B. frugi'fera will en- 

 dure our winters unprotected, except in our 

 southern counties. It ripens its fruit against a 

 wall in Devonshire. It is like a raspberry, and 

 ornamental, but not eatable. 



BERA'RDIA. (Named after M. Berard, 

 a botanist of Grenoble. Nat. ord., Bru- 

 niads [Bruniacese]. Linn., o-Pentandria 

 l-Monogynia.) 



Greenhouse evergreen shrubs, from Cape of 

 Good Hope. Cuttings; divisions; common soil, j

BEKBE'KIS. The Barberry. (From 

 lerberys, its Arabian name. Nat. ord., 

 Berberids [Berberidacese]. Linn., 6- 

 Hexandria \-Monogynia.) 



We have reunited with this genus all the 

 species separated from it, and called Mahonias, 

 Seeds, sown in spring ; cuttings root freely if | 

 planted early in autumn ; and suckers are abun- 

 dantly produced. Grafting is resorted to with 

 rare species. Deep, sandy soil. All are hardy, 

 except where otherwise specified. See BAB-
