Tot. North Devon : N.D.H.—Q. Rame ! : Hore. Hedges about 
Falmouth, "not common:" Polytech. 1856. Dwarf Cherry. 
In a notice of this species by Mr. T. E. A. Briggs in Journ. Bot. v. 310, he 
says, referring to the vicinity of Plymouth, that it is " common in hedge- 
rows near villages and old houses ; but unlike P. Avium L. it with us always 
occurs in situations where we may suspect it of being either planted, or an 
escape from cultivation." 
Spiraea Linn. 
[S. salicifolia (L.) has been found near Moretonhampstead ; but 
I suspect it was in a shrubbery, and therefore it can have no claim 
to a place in the Flora of Devon. At best it is a doubtful native 
of Great Britain.]
