With one exception these are all common species throughout this 

 district. The exception is Silene conica, which I do not remember 

 having seen recorded for Surrey. Hooker gives " Kent, Norfolk, 

 Suffolk, Haddington, Forfar, and Channel Islands" as its known 

 areas, in which, however, it is merely local. It was not identified 

 on the field, but an examination of my specimen at home left no 

 doubt as to its identity ; the ampulliform calyx with its thirty raised 

 dark green ribs on a whitish ground clearly distinguishing it, even 

 apart from its other characters. It was found growing in a field 

 chiefly of Trifolium incarnatum adjoining a fallow. 



A remarkable specimen of Rosa canina was noted in the grounds 

 of the Victoiia Hotel, Banstead, it having climbed almost to the 

 topmost branches of a Scotch fir.
