To Corydalis thalictrifolia (votes, unanimous), from Messrs. Jas. 

 Veitch, Chelsea. A new species from China bearing great quantities of 

 short, slender, tube-shaped, yellow flowers in racemes — 5 to 7 inches 

 long — which stand clear of the much cut bright green Thalictrum-like 

 leaves. Unfortunately it is not perfectly hardy, but can be well recom- 

 mended for cool house and conservatory decoration, and when grown in 

 pots will yield a display of flowers for several months together. It is 

 easily raised from seed.

 azure blue and the large drooping falls violet-purple, white on the basal 

 portion, with pale purple venations and a yellow crest.
