ciliate. — H.W.P.  I  cannot  find  that  the  leaves  are 
spinose-ciliate,  even  under  al"  power.  It  is  evidently  an 
unusual  elongated  form  of  S.  procumbens,  and  seems  to 
agree  with  the  description  of  (3.  apetala  Fenzl.,  sub.-var. 
humifusa  Rouy  and  Fouc.  (“  FI.  France,”  III.,  286). — 
C.E.S.  Like  all  Mr.  Cowan’s  contributions,  this  is 
beautifully  dried.  The  var.  spinosa  is  distinctly  spinose- 
ciliate  on  the  leaves  under  a  lens ;  these  specimens  are 
mostly  quite  smooth-edged,  or  with  a  very  occasional  cilia. 
Not  the  variety,  but  type  procumbens. — E.S.M.  Not  the 
plant  of  Gibson,  which  is  distinctly  spinose-ciliate.— A.B. 
Montia  font  ana  L.,  var.  rivularis  C.  C.  Gmel.  (=  major 
All.).  Near  Aberystwyth,  Cardigansh.,  v.c.  46,  Aug.  1910. 
— W.  R.  Sherrin.  Confirmed.- -E.F.L.  Yes;  M.  rivularis 
Gmel.  The  only  seed  that  I  can  find  is  dull  brownish- 
black ;  so  it  is  not  M.  lamprosperma  Cham.— E.S.M. 
Geranium  Endressi  x  striatum.  Garden  origin. 
Cult.  July  and  Sept.,  1910.  A  spontaneous  hybrid  between 
these  parents  when  grown  together  in  a  garden  at  Sellack 
Vicarage  in  1906.  When  cultivated  it  proved  a  more 
vigorous  plant  than  either  parent,  producing  abundant 
blossoms  and  fertile  seed. — A.  Ley. 
G.  Robertianum  L.,  var.  modestum  (Jord.).  Shingle 
beach,  Coverack,  W.  Cornwall,  v.c.  1,  July,  1910. — H.  E. 
Fox.  I  think  right. — E.F.L.  Correct,  I  believe. — E.S.M. 
Oxalis  Acetosella  L.,  var.  subpur  pur  ascens  DC.  (Ref. 
No.  88).  Arniston  Woods,  Gorebridge,  Edinburghsh.,  v.c. 
88,  May  14,  1910. — Mc.T.  Cowan,  jun.  Lovely  specimens 
of  a  fine  colour-variety,  for  which  I  have  long  and  vainly 
searched. —  E.S.M. 
Ulex  Gallii  Planch.,  var.  humilis  Planch.  ?  Heath 
near  Parkstone,  Dorset,  v.c.  9,  Sept.  1910. — H.  S. 
Thompson.  This  agrees  with  the  description  of  what  is 
at  best  a  very  slight  variety. — E.F.L.  Better,  I  think, 
left  under  type,  as  in  my  examples  of  humilis ,  gathered 
in  Cornwall  and  Scilly  Isles,  the  branches  are  shorter  and 
denser,  and  the  leaves  much  closer  together. — C.E.S.  A 
weak  form  of  Gallii  ;  I  have  seen  U.  minor  ( nanus 
Forster)  stronger  than  this  in  West  Surrey.  There  is
