 116. CRCTCUS specibsus Bot. Reg., 1839, 40. 



This species is described and figured in the Supplement to the English 

 Botany, t. 2752., and is there referred to the C. speciosus of Bieberstein. Dr. 

 Lindley states that he does " not perceive any thing in the short account given 

 by Bieberstein at variance with this plant;" but he adds that Mr. Herbert, 

 who has studied the genus with care, is " opposed to this conclusion." It is 

 a native of Transylvania and Hungary, as well as Britain. (Bot. Reg., July.)

Conostylis juncea Hugel. " A pretty green-house herbaceous plant, found

REPTON's Landscape Gardening, and Landscape Architecture. A new Edi- 

 tion, with Notes, Biographical Notice, and copious General Index. By J. 

 C. Loudon, F.L.S., &c. Being the entire Works of the late Humphrey 

 Repton, Esq., on those Subjects. Originally published in one folio and three 

 quarto volumes ; and now comprised in one volume octavo. Illustrated by 

 upwards of two hundred engravings. To be completed in twelve num- 

 bers, forming one volume octavo, Price 30s. plain, or 66s. coloured. 

 Lond. 1839. No. I., 8vo, p. 25. to 80., Price 2s. 6d., or with the engrav- 

 ings coloured, 5s. 6d. 



Mr. Repton's celebrity as a landscape-gardener is too well known to require 

 that we should do more than notice the circumstance. His published works 

 have been hitherto altogether beyond the reach of the practical gardener ; and 

 we therefore consider that we are rendering an essential service to the pro- 

 fession by editing an edition which, instead of costing 20/. and upwards, will 

 cost only 30s. 



In this octavo edition, all the engravings in the large edition will be given, 

 reduced so as to come within an octavo page; and, as the greater number of 

 these engravings are landscapes, diagrams, sections, and plans, we can state 

 with confidence that they will answer all the purposes of illustration for which 

 they were intended, as well as the plates in the large edition. Nay, we will 

 go farther, and state that, as we have given a separate engraving for every 

 slide, Mr. Repton's ideas will be rendered more clear by our plates than by 

 his own. This will apply not only to the coloured, but to the plain, copies. 



We are anxious that the young gardener should possess this work for his 

 own sake, as well as ours ; and we recommend him to take it in as published,
