On the cliffs in the west, exposed to the prevalent S. and 

 S.^\^ wmds, the stem of the plant is often bent o-\er just 

 above the ground, so that the branches cling closely to the 

 surface of the rooks. This is var. prostratds Bailey, which 

 is nothing but a form, entirely due to situation. It has been 

 noticed in Guernsey, Alderney, and Cornwall.
