COLCHICACE^E. 237 



1. Under hedges between Hinton and the Gogniagog 

 Hills, in several places ; also between Red Cross Turnpike 

 and the Gogmagogs, abundantly. Near Sawston (Miss 

 Plowden) ; G. S. G. 



This plant is abundant about Cavenham and other places 

 in Norfolk bordering upon Cambridgeshire. It may be an 

 escape in this county ; but the only Muscari that I can find 

 in cultivation is M. botrydides. I gathered M. racemosum 

 near Hinton on April 11, 1828, but do not know who first 

 found it, in that or the preceding year.
