species of hawkweed in 1901 suffered extremely from the drought 
and searching winds of May and June, and flowered very poorly. At 
Cheddar, H. lima, Schmidiii, and stenolepis were flowering abundantly 
in September, I suppose on this account. — Augustin Ley. “Lovely 
specimens of this characteristic plant.” — Ed.

forma. Origin, Unich Water, Forfar; cult. June 20th, 1891. This 
plant, grown from seedlings supplied by Rev. E. S. Marshall, has 
proved a puzzling one; it has been placed under II. lasiophyllum., and 
again assigned (by Dahlstedt) to II. Schmidtii, var. superbum., Strbmfelt. 
I am disposed to place it as a form or var. of II. Leyi, which, there is 
reason to think, is very near the above var. superbum.^'' — ^V. R. Linton. 
“ I gathered two allied forms in 1 888 by the Unich Water and on Craig 
Maskeldie, close by, which remained distinct in cultivation up to my 
change of abode in 1900. One of these was named by Mr. Hanbury 
II. hisiop/iy/liim, var. enryodon, and some of Mr. Linton’s specimens 
a[)pear to lie just what he so determined. My accjuaintance with If. 
Leyi in a living state is but slight ; in some respects it seems to come 
between Schmidtii and lasiop/tylliun, though nearer to the second. I 
do not believe that either of my gatherings can properly be [ilaced 
under Sdunid/ii .” — Ed.
