R.  Bellardii  Wh.  &  N.  Cowleigh  Park  and  Birch 
Wood,  Herefordsh.,  v.c.  86  (Districts  4  and  5,  Hereford¬ 
shire  Flora),  July  24,  1908.  In  Herefordshire  a  very  local 
plant,  not  yet  found  outside  these  two  districts. — A.  Ley. 
R.  Balfourianus  Blox.  Near  Ty  Croes  Station,  Angle¬ 
sey,  v.c.  52,  Aug.  1895. — J.  E.  Griffith.  “I  should  rather 
say  R.  dumetorum  Wh.  &  N.  (sp.  coll.).  It  cannot  go  to 
R.  Balfourianus ,  I  believe.” — W.M.R.  [CORRECTION. — : 
Wats.  Bot.  Ex.  Cl.  Rept.  for  1895-96,  p.  7]. 
Potentilla  Grantzii  G.  Beck.  Creag  Mhor,  Mid  Perth, 
v.c.  88,  July,  1908. — P.  Ewing. 
Alchemilla  vulgaris  L.,  var.  alpestris  Pohl.  Morridge, 
near  Leek,  Staffs.,  v.c.  39  (up  to  1600  feet  alt.),  June  28, 
1908.— T.  E.  Routh. 
Rosa  mollis  Sm.,  var. - .  (No.  11).  Bank  of 
Tay,  near  Meikleour,  E.  Perthsh.,  v.c.  89,  July  3,  1908.  A 
variation  of  the  group  which  Mr.  Ley  calls  var.  recondita 
Puget.  Red-flowered  ;  leaves  thickly  covered  beneath  and 
more  or  less  thickly  above  with  greenish  yellow  glands, 
slightly  viscous  when  fresh.  Fruit  prickly  and  very  large. 
—  W.  Barclay.  Not  R.  recondita  Puget,  which  is  a  large- 
leaved  plant,  just  R. pomifera  Herrm.,  with  more  glandular 
leaflets.  I  should  label  this  R.  pseudo -rubiginosa  Lej., 
though  its  leaflets  are  larger  and  broader  in  proportion  to 
their  length  than  specimens  so  named  for  me  by  Mr.  Ley. 
— A.H.W.-D. 
R.  mollis  Sm.,  var. - .  (No.  12).  Bank  of  Tay, 
at  Meikleour,  E.  Perthsh.,  v.c.  89,  July  3,  1908.  Another 
variation  of  the  same  group.  Flowers  white,  except  one  or 
two  petals  which  are  tinged  with  pink  on  the  outside. 
Leaves  less  glandular,  but  more  hairy  than  in  No.  11. 
Fruit  as  in  No.  11,  but  smooth.  Both  of  these  were  sent 
to  Mr.  Ley  in  ripe  fruit,  and  were  recognised  by  him  as 
his  var.  recondita  Puget.  I  have  expressed  my  opinion  of 
this. group  in  Jl.  Bot.  for  Nov.  1908,  p.  357.  The  fruit  was 
too  ripe  at  my  second  visit  to  the  place,  but  I  shall  try  to 
send  better  specimens  in  flowers  and  fruit  next  year. — W. 
Barclay.  As  far  as  the  small  flowering-branch  received 
goes,  I  think  that  this  is  var.  ccerulea  Woods. — E.S.M. 
Not  R.  recondita.  Nearest  R.  mollis ,  var.  coerulea  Woods,
