REPORT FOR 1886—87. 



The number of plants received during the recent exchange is 

 in excess of those received last year. As will be seen from 

 the list given below, 4,971 specimens have been received from 

 35 contributors. 



I am much indebted, and indeed so are all the members of 

 the Club, to Mr. Arthur Bennett, F.L.S., for his continued 

 help and generous assistance as Referee. To Prof. Babington 

 our best thanks are due for looking over the Rubi. 



Members will please note the altered 6th section of Rule 3. 

 It will save the Distributor hours of labour if this arrangement 

 is adhered to.
