Iris fcetidissima L.t Native. ; Divs. 3.1 1. 16. Only to be found 

 in Div. 11 now, I fear. It was in Corby Wood a few years ago. 



Iris Pseudacorus L.t Native. Divs. 1-14. 16-18. 



if 



Crocus nudiflorus L. Native, I suppose I ought to say, for it 

 has undoubtedly been carried there (Div. 6) ages ago by the 

 Trent from its Nottingham home. It is almost extinct, and so 

 rare I have not taken a specimen for the Cty. Herb. Miss 



Anderson. 



AMARYLLIDE.K. 



Narcissus Pseudo-narcissus L.f Alien always, though in 



some cases it has been here for ages. Could the Romans have 

 brought it first ? There are various varieties, some of the very 

 oldest Divs. 2-4.6-8. 10. 13. 15. It is curious to remark how it 

 avoids the new fen lands and sea coast.
