For a long period we have been without the regular receipt 

 of all our English periodicals, but having now made such ar- 

 rangements as will, in future, place them in our hands at an 

 early day, we shall commence with our notices in our usual 

 style; knowing that such notices are not only valuable to all 

 our botanical and floricultural readers, but are sought after by 

 all who take an interest in the cultivation of plants. In con- 

 nection with the notices of the subjects figured in these publi- 

 cations, we shall also, under the several orders, introduce such 

 plants belonging to those orders as may have been originated 

 in our gardens, or may have flowered for the first time, with 

 remarks upon their propagation, cultivation, See. 



Berbcridkcex. 



BITRBERIS 



coriclria Royh The Tanner's Berberry. A half hardy (?) shrub, growing five or six feet 

 high; with yellow flowers, appearing in June; propagated by seeds or layers; a Dativo 

 of Nepal; introduced in 1835. Bot. Keg., 1841.' 40. 



All the Nepal berberries are fine hardy shrubs in the cli- 

 mate of England, and we do not doubt they might be so here, 

 particularly south of New York. Few of them, however, 

 have ever been introduced. The B. coriaria has somewhat 

 the appearance of our common berberry, but the flowers are 

 considerably larger, and the foliage much more beautiful. The 

 racemes of flowers are axillary and pendulous, and produced 

 in considerable numbers. In the garden it is a robust shrub, 

 quite hardy, flowering in June. It is easily increased by seeds, 

 which should be sown as soon as ripe. Seeds were received 

 by the London Horticultural Society, from Dr. Royle, in 

 1835, from whence the plants were raised. (Bot. Reg.^
