Radix tuberosa, caules decumbentes debiles angulati an- 
gulis alatis, folia alterna impari-pinnata, pinnis anguste line- 
aribus supra canaliculatis nervosis subtus hirsutis apice mu-

The next plant whose place of growth I shall name, is 
Campanula Rapunculus. This is stated in Turner and Dil- 
wyn’s Botanist’s Guide, to occur in hedges between Bexley 
and Dartford. I may add for the sake of rendering this di- 
rection a little more exact that I found it abundant on the 
border of a small wood adjoining the first field through 
which the footpath passes from Bexley Church to Dartford 
Heath. 
On Dartford Heath, Ulex nanus and Genista anglica were 
seen between the Folly House and Wilmington workhouse, 
and Bupleurum rotundifolium on the side of a lane between 
Mount Pleasant and Northhell’s Farm, both near Wilming- 
ton. Passing from this lane towards Sutton Church through 
some chalky corn-fields called the Hollow Denes, I observed 
Fcedia dent at a, Bromus erectus and secalinus, Agrostis Spica- 
venti, Plantago media, Linaria minor , L. Elatine and L. spuria , 
Euphorbia exigua , Cistus Helianthemum, Adonis autumnalis 
and Ajuga Chamcepitys, all of them common plants in this 
neighbourhood. 
In addition to most of these, Galium tricorne , Anagallis 
ccerulea , Papaver hybridum and somniferum, were also found 
in the first corn-field to the left of the Fox and Hounds at 
Darent Lane’s End, while the wood above this field afforded 
Astragalus glycyphyllus, Asperula Cynanchica and Rubus 
ccesius ? on its borders. Leaving this productive spot, and 
returning to the high road, we saw the white cliffs of North- 
fleet varied with the red and yellow flowers of Valeriana 
rubra and Crepis biennis. The approach of night prevented 
my observing any other plants between Northfleet and Cob- 
ham ; but the following day, in company with several mem- 
bers, we found Brachypodium pinnatum and Diant kus Arme- 
nia on the side of the road leading from Cobham to the Park ;
