Buxus semper vireiis, L. Chalk Hills, Happy Valley, Kimble, 

 Bucks, May and June 1912. I thought some members might like to 

 have these specimens of box with fruit and flower from this ' locus 

 classicus.' In the box woods in the Happy Valley and on tlie Velvet 

 Lawn (both in Chequers Park) the trees grow often 20 feet high. 

 The trunk of one in our garden has a girth of 6 feet just above the 

 ground, after which it divides. The fruit is popularly called here 

 ' Pots and Kettles.' — F. L. Foord-Kelcey.

 Towndrow ; comm., S. H. Bickham. " If correctly named, surely a 

 very weak variety." — G. C. Druce.
