GLOBULARIA VULGARIS. 



Class. OrJer. 



TETRANDRIA MONOGYNIA 



A native of Switzerland and the South 

 of Europe, and a very pretty little herba- 

 ceous plant, of humble growth, well de- 

 serving cultivation. It flowers in May, 

 and is scarcely hardy enough to withstand 

 the cold of our winters, without the shelter 

 of a frame. It is difficult to increase, and 

 is therefore not by any means such a 

 common plant as the name would appear 

 to indicate.
