MYRTUS. Myrtacese. 
M. bullata. New Zealand. 
A plant known in Cornish gardens, but which is 
not hardy elsewhere. We grow it near a south wall, 
and the tips are sometimes damaged by frost, but 
the plant flowers well. The leaves are most attrac- 
tive : seen from above, they look as if they were 
inflated like small air cushions. Our largest plant 
measures 6 feet high by 4 feet through, and was 
imported from New Zealand by Mr. Travers. 
*M. Luma. Chile. 
11£ feet high, 9| feet through. A fine bush of 
this Myrtle grows near a south wall. It required 
protection when young, but now seems fairly hardy 
and flowers well. 
M. Ugni. Myrtilla. Chile. 
We grow this Chilean Myrtle against an eight- 
foot wall. Several plants now cover a space of 
30 feet and appear quite hardy. It flowers well, 
and the fruit, when ripe, is soft to eat and has a 
delicious flavour.
