[p. muralis (Linn.) — A single plant was found " in the walls 

 of Blarney Castle,'' by Mr. Drummond, but the species has 

 not been re-discovered in this locality. Dr. Power mentions 

 a' wall at Evergreen, and the wall of the Mathew Cemetery, 

 to which the seed was no doubt conveyed from the old Botanic 

 G-arden. Dr. Dickie notices it as naturalized upon old walls 

 about Belfast, &c., where, also, it has probably escaped from 

 cultivation.]
