(1) Leaves undivided.

( Stem two or three inches high, upright, undivided, smooth, with few 
leaves, and those nearly sessile. Corymhus terminal, of few flowers. 
Petals erect, twice the length of the purplish calyx, white. Pod strap¬ 
shaped, blunt, smooth, scarcely an inch long. E.) 
Daisy-leaved Ladies’-smock. Mr. Griffith informs me that the Turritis 
hirsuta now grows in the places near Denbigh where the Cardamine was 
said to grow. (Such is the case with all the stations of this plant 
reported by the old authors. It would seem the attention of Botanists 
should rather be directed northward. E.) The specimens before me 
were gathered wild in Scotland, and sent me by Mr. Milne. (Of these 
being genuine there can be no doubt. E.) P. Aug. 
(2) Leaves winged. 
C. impa'tiens. Leaves winged: leafits spear-shaped, toothed or cut: 
stipulae fringed. E. Bot.

Leafits of the upper leaves nearly entire, of the middle ones toothed, of the 
lower ones considerably cut and jagged. Stipulce crescent-shaped, half 
embracing the stem. Petals small, white, deciduous ; sometimes want¬ 
ing. (The stem is not unfrequently branched, usually a foot and a half 
high, rather crooked. Pods peculiarly sensitive to the stimulus of heat; 
on warm sunny days they may be observed audibly exploding, and with 
a contractile force, which, after expelling the seeds, causes the detached 
valve to form a compact volute. E.) 
Impatient Ladies’-smock. Mountainous meadows by the sides of 
rivulets, on rocks and moist stony places, in Derbyshire, and Westmore- 
land. Giggleswick Scar; rocks opposite Matlock Bath, Derbyshire. 
Mr. Woodward. On loose earth thrown up for a quarry above Lench 
Ford, nearly opposite Shrawley, and in Cliffy Wood near Hanley, 
Worcestershire. Dr. Stokes. Plentiful in a hedge near the parsonage at 
Slinfold, Sussex. Mr. Borrer, in Bot. Guide. Barrow hill, near Dudley.

(Neither the hairiness, the absence of the two shorter stamens, or other 
characteristics of this species, are invariable. In height from three 
inches to nearly a foot. E.) Stems generally numerous, (branched, the 
central one upright, the rest declining, hairy. Root-leaves very nume¬ 
rous, forming a circle on the ground; leafits roundish, three or four pair, 
with an odd one much larger ; stem-leaves, two or three on each stem, 
roundish or spear-shaped. Woodw. (Flowers white, small* Pods erect, 
not invariably hirsute ; stigma almost sessile. E.)
