Europe. Ithas been found in the Highlands 
of Scotland, and is a trailing plant, lying 
on the ground in short tufts: the leaves are 
opposite, of a rigid consistence, and ever- 
green: the flowers are produced in April. 
It will bear the full sun, as we have expe- 
rienced during a very hot and dry summer : 
the soil must be peat mixed with loam: it 
is very useful to lay some pebbles under the 
branches, to keep ml earth from washing 
over them in heavy rai 
It may be increased br cuttings or layers.
