60 Alpine Plants. 
Geum reptans (Switzerland, Germany, etc.). 
A very interesting Alpine, of quite easy growth 
on sunny, sandy banks, and indeed doing well in 
pure sand, in which it makes runners like a Straw- 
berry ; these should be pegged down to enable them 
to root more freely. 
Geum Rossi (N. America). 
A useful rock plant, which does well in a sunny 
place, in ordinary loam. 
Geum Roylei (Himalaya). 
Treat like Geum Rossi. 
Glaucium Fischeri (Gar. Hyb.). 
Treat like Glaucium flavum tricolor. 
Glaucium flavum tricolor (Europe, N. Africa, and W. Asia). 
A somewhat strong-growing plant, but beautiful 
in foliage and flower from June until frost, and very 
suitable for a place at the back of rockeries. Plant in 
a dry open position on the flat, facing full south, in 
poor sandy loam with some lime rubble. In late 
autumn cut down within a few inches of its base, and 
the plant will probably form another rosette or young 
growth for the next year. As the plant is most often 
biennial, it is wise to gather a little seed annually. 
Globularia Alypum (S. Europe). 
An interesting and rare Alpine. This species 
grows bush-like and bears comparatively large 
flowers on long stalks. It requires a rather sheltered 
place in full sun. Plant in a well-drained part, in 
two parts of rough loam to one part of sandy grit 
and one part of hard peat. If the climate is at alla
