C. - ?  Origin,  rubbish  heap  near  Malvern, 
Worcs.,  v.c.  37.  Cult.  Ledbury,  Aug.  12  and  26,  1906. — 
S.  H.  Bickham.  Unknown  to  me. — A.B.  I  suppose  that 
this  is  a  variety  of  C.  album,  L.,  but  do  not  know  it.— 
E.S.M.  Is  this  anything  more  than  luxuriant  var.  a.,  i.e. 
type? — E.F.L. 
C.  ficifolium,  Sm.  New  Humberstone,  Leics.,  v.c.  55, 
Aug.  5,  1906. — A.  R.  Horwood.  Rightly  named. — E.F.L. 
Correct,  I  think.  Messrs.  Britten  and  Rendle  identify  this 
with  C.  serotinum,  L.  (Cent.  PI.  II.,  p.  12,  1756). — E.S.M. 
Yes.  Apparently  an  additional  locality  to  those  given  in 
the  “Flora  of  Leics.,”  p.  130  (1886). — A.B. 
Salicornia - .  Rye  Harbour,  E.  Sussex,  v.c.  14, 
Sept.  17,  1906.  Apparently  near  pusilla,  but  scarcely 
delicate  enough  for  that.  It  may  be  one  of  the  many 
forms  coming  under  S.  intermedia,  Woods. — C.  E.  Salmon. 
I  believe  this  to  be  S.  pusilla,  Woods,  var.  gracillima, 
Towns.,  and  not  S.  intermedia,  Woods ;  but  it  is  not 
exactly  like  my  original  Pagham  plant,  from  which  Mr. 
Townsend  described  his  variety.  Rather  young  specimens. 
—E.S.M. 
S.  appressa,  Dum.  (1)  On  chalk  at  Seaford,  E.  Sussex, 
v.c.  14,  Oct.  8,  1906. — H.  S.  Thompson.  I  believe  correct. 
In  these  luxuriant  plants  the  spikelets  are  less  crowded 
than  in  the  normal  smaller  form. — E.S.M.  (2)  Thorney 
Island,  W.  Sussex,  v.c.  13,  Aug.  25,  1906.— R.  S.  Standen. 
Rather  young,  but  I  think  correctly  named. — C.E.S. 
Though  collected  too  early,  this  shews  the  prostrate  habit 
well.  I  discovered  this  remarkably  luxuriant  state  there 
in  Sept.  1903 ;  the  station  (no  doubt  the  same)  was  a 
deep,  muddy  salt-marsh  of  small  extent. — E.S.M.  Mr. 
Standen  writes  that  he  has  no  doubt  as  to  Mr.  Marshall’s 
station  being  identical  with  his. 
S.  lignosa,  Woods.  Portchester,  S.  Hants.,  v.c.  11, 
Aug.  24,  1906. — R.  S.  Standen.  Correct.  The  spikelets 
become  much  stouter  in  autumn. — E.S.M. 
Polygonum  aviculare,  L.  Waste  ground,  Battenberg 
Avenue,  Leicester,  v.c.  55,  Aug.  4,  1906.  I  do  not  know 
the  vars.  of  this  plant,  but  I  have  not  noticed  a  similar 
form  about  here  before. — W.  Bell.  I  am  not  well  up  in 
these  plants  ;  but  the  Rev.  E.  F.  Linton  has  studied  them.
