THE BOTANICAL EXCHANGE CLUB OF 
THE BRITISH ISLES. 
REPORT OF THE DISTRIBUTOR FOR iSgg. 
The number of plants sent in shows a considerable falling off from 
the average of recent years. Members are requested not to send 
several specimens on the same sheet, and not to send less than ten 
specimens of a plant ; several cases occurred where only one, two, or 
three specimens were sent. Members also should not send plants 
labelled “ var.” without mentioning the points in which they consider 
the plant sent to be a variety. 
Mr. Rogers remarks on the Rubi that they are not an interesting 
lot, and were nearly all cut far too late in the season, and so show but 
little character. The thanks of the Club are due to those members 
who have kindly commented on plants submitted to them : to Rev. 
\V. Moyle Rogers, Rubi-, Mr. F. Townsend, Euphrasia ; Messrs. J. G. 
Baker, A, Bennett, G. C. Druce, H. and J. Groves, Rev. E. F. Linton, 
various critical plants.
