SELAGINELLA TASSELLATA, 
A remarkably handsome and elegant species introduced from Brazil. From the creeping caudex » 
are developed at intervals erect stems ; these have flat closely pinnate branches and branohlets, from ’ 
the tips of which are produced fertile quadrangular spikelets about an inch and a half in lengthy giving 
the plant the appearance of being furnished with a profusion of elegant tassels. This striking and 
peculiar oharact^ renders it one of the most desirable and attractive of the Glub-mosses. 3«. Gd. & 5$.
