is coarser than that of Pinus Larix ; the tree is of much 

 slower growth than those of Pinus Larix from the Tyrol, its 

 general aspect is very unlike that of the other species, the 

 bark is quite cenereous, not of a yellowish brown colour, and 

 not distinctly scarred, as in the common Larch, but, on the 

 contrary, the vestiges of the scars are scarcely visible ; the 

 leaves come out so soon that they are liable to be injured by 

 spring frosts : and what is remarkable, the female flowers 

 are not produced till some time after those of the European 

 Larch appear : they are like those of Pinus microcarpa. 

 Mr. Sabine has a plant of this sort in his garden at North 

 Mimms, which he received under the name of Larix Sabirica, 

 from Messrs. Loddiges, who obtained the seed originally 

 from Professor Pallas, whose Pinus Larix it probably is; 

 he contrasts the cenereous bark of his plant with the pale 

 brown colour of the common Larch ; it may prove to be a 

 distinct species. 



With the exception of Pinus pendula, these are all the 

 kinds of Larch at present known. 



June 20th, 1820. The Hon. Robert Fulk Greville 

 sent from his conservatory at Castle Hall, near Milford, 

 in Pembrokeshire, a fine specimen of the Madras Citron, 

 which seems a very desirable variety to cultivate for orna- 

 mental purposes. It possessed much of the character of the 

 Shaddock, being of a regular form, and with a smooth skin, 

 much thinner than that of the Citron usually is. It was nearly 

 sixteen inches in circumference, each way, very compact and 

 heavy. The juice was extremely acid, and the flesh, which 

 was coarse, slightly tinged with red, like the Shaddock.
