kinds of Cape bulbs suffered, or perished, although in a cold 

 frame covered with mats. 



Anomatheca cruenta. A small bed of this beautiful plant was in 

 front of the greenhouse at Carclew ; it was supposed to be 

 dead, but was left undisturbed, and again made its ap- 

 pearance after the winter. 



Albuca major and minor, Eucomis punctata, Tritonia uvaria, 

 pumila, and media, survived in a border at Claremont, pro- 

 tected by a thin covering of fern. 



Oxalis, 20 species in a border, with the tuberous Pelargo- 

 niums hereafter noticed, stood well at Claremont. O. Boiviei 

 was killed at Dropmore. 



Cacalia Kleinii, an old plant, which had stood out for several 

 years, was killed at Sketty. 



Diosma amcena, trained against the front of the greenhouse at 

 Carclew, was partly killed ; the leaves were unhurt on some 

 of the branches. 



Echium giganteum survived at Binstead, in the Isle of Wight, in 

 high and dry situations ; but it died in low grounds. 



Halleria lucida, trained against the front wall of the stove at 

 Carclew, was very little hurt ; its young shoots, and those 

 which projected from the wall, were killed, but it broke again 

 very strong. In Mr. Fox's Garden at Falmouth it grows 

 freely as a shrub. 



Lycium afrum. This plant survived at Carclew on an east wall, 

 while Carmiciiaelia australis on one side of it, and Escal- 

 lonia glandulosa on the other, were hurt. 



Myrsine africana, which had stood 23 years against the front 

 wall of the stables at SpofForth, having been planted out in 

 1815, w r as as much injured as it was when the glass fell to 

 10° many years ago, but it was not killed ; one branch however 

 alone remained with green leaves, and the rest were dead.
