 phylla . For trial in all but the coldest and hottest states. (Glenn Dale, Md.) 



122078. COTONEASTER SP. From India. Obtained at Darjeeling by Walter Koelz, Bureau 

 of Plant Industry, but grown at high altitudes in Sikkim. Same description as for 

 P. I. No. 119223. (Glenn Dale. Md.) 



122079. COTONEASTER SP. From India. Collected at an elevation, of about 7,000 feet 

 near Darjeeling, Bengal, by Walter Koelz, Bureau of Plant Industry. A red-berried 

 cotoneaster which attains the dimensions of a tree in India. The young plants appear 

 identical with those of P. I. No. 119223. For trial from Tennessee southward. (Glenn 

 Dale. Md.)

 Kiangsi Province, and presented by A. N. Steward, University of Nanking, Nanking. A 

 shrub up to 6 feet tall, with elliptic-ovate, to elliptic-oblong, short-acuminate, 

 sharply serrulate leaves, 1|- to 3 inches long, stellate-toraentose and whitish below. 

 The flowers, in great, broadly pyramidal panicles, are white, nearly a half-inch

122234. DIANTKUS CARTHUSIANORUM. (Silenaceae . ) Pink. From Turkey. Collected at 

 Bsrgana by H. L. Westover and F. L. Wellman, Bureau of Plant Industry. A hardy, 

 herbaceous perennial 12 to 20 inches high, with wiry, angled stems and linear pointed 

 leaves. The odorless flowers, in shades of amber and 'coral-red, are in heads of 6 to 

 20. Because of the deep taproots and the character of the growth it is believed 

 that these plants would be particularly drought resistant. They should transmit some 

 highly desirable characters if used in breeding work. Native from Denmark to Portu- 

 gal and in Egypt. For trial in all but the coldest parts of the country. (Glenn 

 Dale, Md.)
