, The remainder of the records we have arranged alphabetically under 

 1 the districts in which the plants are native. It, of course, often 

 i happens that the geographical range of the plant is greater than through 

 ! one district, and in these cases there will be some overlapping, e.g. some 

 i plants entered in the list as belonging to the Himalayan region will 

 also range into China, and others into Burma, and vice versd. The 

 districts are also often too large, but our knowledge of the range of 

 plants is still very incomplete and a considerable amount of botanical 

 exploration remains to be done, so that a further subdivision was not 

 deemed advisable. The arrangement, however, shows to some extent 

 I from what districts hardy plants generally come, though no hard and 

 fast rule can be drawn.
