DRABA STELLATA. 
Class. Order. 
TETRADYNAMIA SILICULOSA. 
This little plant isa native of the Alps; 
it has also been found in the Highlands of 
Scotland. It is easily cultivated in a small 
pot, and light loamy soil; flowers in April, 
and reguires no sort of protection in any 
season. 
Plants of this nature, of which there are 
great numbers, are highly desirable, not only 
in general collections, but to those, who, 
not having room in their gardens, or from 
other causes, may not find it eligible to de- 
vote much space or expense to them. Many 
such would fain treat themselves with some 
of the beauties of the vegetable world, some 
of the kind gifts of indulgent Providence. 
These, in their leisure moments, they may 
contemplate and enjoy. Surely such will be 
glad to know that a single square yard will 
in proper sized pots afford abundant accom- 
modation for more than fifty species; so that 
almost every one may afford themselves an 
innocent and delightful gratification.
