I have observed this plant as a common weed in nurseries 
and gardens near London, particularly on the Surrey side. 
My specimens were gathered near Edinburgh, in cultivated 
fields, but it may be considered as of rare occurrence in Scot-

this, the radii stage reflexed, the segments of the leaves much 
broader, and the smell v very fragrant. May this be the
