Director, Botanic Garden, San Yat-Sen Memorial Park, Nanking. An upright shrub 6

25012. BUXUS HARLANDII.* Box. From Hangchow, Chekiang, China. This Chinese 
species is almost as slow in growth as the dwarf box commonly used for edgings. 
It differs from this chiefly in its longer leaves, often 14 inches long on vigorous 
shoots, and its tendency to form rather broad, flat-topped bushes. The species 
suffers from winter—killing near Washington, D. C., but has shown much promise in 
milder regions and especially in rather dry situations. For trial in the southern 
states and California. (Chico, Calif.)
