Brorero tells us that. he has repeatedly removed the bulbs from Lifbon to a more northern, quarter of Portugal ; when he never failed to find the plant, after a time, fo altered by this change of climate and foil, as {carcely to be recognized for the fame fpecies; the leaves becoming fhorter and more convolute; the {tem flaccid and dwarfifh; the radii of the umbel fhorter and unequal; while the corolla loft all its purple hue, and the bulb-bearing leaf difappeared entirely. This — with us is feldom produced, nor have the flowers fearcely ever any mixture of purple or red. The original #igram of Linnezus, firft taken up in the fecond edition of his Species Plantarum, was very diftin& from magicum, into which he afterwards. negligently converted it, in the thirteenth edition of the Syfema Vegetabilium ; where, fupprefling the note firft attached to the fpecific charaéter of | nigrum, he has fubftituted another, evidently defcriptive of our prefent plant; of which, as a fpecies already inftituted by himfelf, and ftill landing in the work he was then revifing, he — feems as completely to have loft fight, as of the real nigrum. — This, upon referring to his former works, will be found to be the now. zarcififorum (illyricum ?) and fcarcely, if really, diftin@ — from rofeum. ‘The {pecific appellation was-moft probably fug- — gelled by the black-purple colour its flowers affume when — dried, in which ftate alone Linnaus had probably at «that — time feen them, fince he quotes Buxksen’s* Herbarium as his — authority. The Hortus Kewenfis has the two names as be- longing’ fo diftin& {pecies ; but the references to Gzexarn’s Homer's Garlick for the one, and to Jacguin’s multibulbofum for the other, fhew that the fame plant ‘is the foundation’ of | both.

Of our- — felves, we fhould have moft probably given them as varieties of each other. Rufa is faid to have much narrower and lefs truly enfiform leaves, the ftem:entirely and not partially pubef- cent, fewer flowers in the racemes, with a fomewhat clofer panicle; Mr. Brown adds, that the flowers are alfo the largeft of the two fpecies. We have no doubt but that in — time many others will prefent themfelves, when fuch parts of the generic chara€ter which are above taken from the irregularity of the limb or border of the corolla, and the relative length of that with the tube, will neceffarily be fup- prefled; for we have feldom found thofe marks of- any im-— portance in defining the generic fe€tions of this natural order. — They are good fpecific diftin@tions. The ftem of favida grows from three to four feet high, and is of a brownifh purple ‘colour; leaves fhorter than this, and not quite an inch broad. | The flowers have no {cent. Mr. Verx’s gardener, who raifed the plant from which the drawing was made, fays it is very eafily propagated by parting the roots; that it requires little ‘care beyond proteétion from froft; and that it blooms very freely during the fummer months, G. : wards Tat Pah bot Po Curbhie:S* Geolrel cant Mav tsa0# F Sanfom Lendp. 7 [ 152 J VACCINIUM CRASSIFOLIUM.

Afzelius in Herbario Banks, Although the leaflets of this plant are confiderably broader thanin Scuorttia /pecio/a, more obtufe, even frequently emar- ginate, and rarely mucronate, and have the internal margin hollowed, fo as to give them fomewhat of a kidney fhape, we fhould neverthelefs have been inclined to confider them as mere varieties, had not our learned friend, Prof. Arzstivs, | in a paper long fince read before the Linnean Society but not yet publifhed, made them diftin&. The confidence we have in his accuracy will not permit us to doubt but that he had | fufficient grounds for fo doing, and perhaps the legumen may afford fufficient diftin@tive charafters, but unfortunately we have not been able to fee that of S. /pecio/a. In tamarindifolia the legumen is large, broad, extremely flattened, much arched, with a remarkable thick margin at both futures, _ depi@ted with veins, which take their rife from both margins, and branching into a beautiful net-work, entirely cover the fides of the legumen, The germen is pedicellated, but the pedicle ‘gio pedicle not increafing in length with the growth of the legumen, — becomes in the latter nearly obfolete. In the Bankfian Her- — barium there is a third {pecies with four pair of obcordate — leaflets, and a legumen much lefs curved. 2 Our drawing was made at Mr. Wooprorp’s, in whofe — collelion at Springwell only, except at Kew, have we heard — of this beautiful fpecies being feen.

Notwithftanding the Chinefe Florifts differ from the European, in rejeéting all variegated flowers, confidering fuch as contrary to nature, they enumerate two hundred and forty fpecies, as they are called, many of them of exquifite beauty and delightful fragrance. TuunsercG, as well as Lovurerro, as is evident by his having given as fynonyms both the Saku-Jaku aid Botan of K zmprer, confidered this plant to be the fame {pecies with the Pzonta officinalis of Linnaus, which is likewife cultivated in China, and much ufed there in medicine. The Paonia papaveracea of AnpRews we fufpe& may be amere variety of the Moutan with white flowers {potted with crimfon; and that the fingular union of fix capfules intoa globular feed-veffel with fix cells, is an accidental {porting of nature. If this ftru€ture of the fruit be natural, it will afford not a {pecific but a generic diftin@ion. For the introdu€tion of this valuable acquifition to our gardens, we are indebted to Sir Joserux Banxs, who in- {truéted feveral perfons trading to Canton, to inquire for the Moutan, the name by which it is known in China; in confe- quence of which numerous fpecimens were fent to this country, moft of them however perifhed in the voyage. Since that time feveral varieties have been imported in a growing ftate, but we have not feen any that were remarkable for the fra- grance of their flowers. : Propagated in China by feeds, the only way to obtain new varieties, alfo by parting the roots, by layers and cuttings, and they generally inoculate the buds of different — varieties upon the feveral branches of the fame root. When the time of flowering approaches, they carefully remove all fuperfluous buds, and proteét thofe that are left from the {corching heat of the fun. It is fufficiently hardy to bear the cold of our climate, but to have it bloom well it is neceffary _ to proteét it by a glafs frame. The fineft “{pecimen we have feen, and from which our drawing: was taken, is at Mr. Grevitve’s, at Paddington, where it is planted in the ground, — and has a glazed building erefted over it without flues. Ths 4 plant bears a profufion of bloffoms ; it does not rife very high, but «divides into feveral branches near the ground, — and, {preading in a cirular form, meafures about nine yards in circumference, Seeded Saale Flowers in May and June, and fometimes with us perfe&s its feeds in September and Of ober.

That the leaves are very fubje& to vary, both in their general figure and margins, appears from MIiLier’s own foecimen, preferved in the Bankfian Herbarium, in which fome of theslower leaves are deeply but finely toothed. In confirmation of the identity of thefe plants, it may be obferved, — that the Chelfea Garden was probably fupplied with it from that of Amfterdam, and that Wernman, who could hardly miftake Comme in’s plant, has drawn his figure with leaves perfeétly entire. Wittpenow has afferted that the Cetas- _Trus pyracanthus defcribed by Tuunsere is altogether a different {pecies from that of Linn “us, but we fee no reafon to think fo; the fpecific phrafe of the former, above quoted, agrees very well with our plant, except in the leaves being obovate; as we have occafionally fecn them, and alfo obcordate and acute in the fame plant. ~~ = : P< gett In Linn £us’s own {pecynen from Ciirrorn’s Garden, in — the poffeffion of Sir Joserm Banks, the leaves are molly — obovate, marginated, and rather denticulated than ferrated, the fame as we have generally found them in the younget — plants in our greenhoufes.

To which we may — probably add from Micuaux, Popatryria Crotalaria fi} oF perfoliata; P. uniflora; P. villofa; P. mollis, The above plants . are all natives of North-America, and agree in having herba- ceous ftems, ternate leaves, large ftipule, and a pedicellated inflated pod. : ae i aa We have greatly to regret that whilft Mr. Sazuissury has — pointed out the different genera, he has not in this eflay, given us the generic chara€ters, nor applied any names, except to one affemblage, confifting of Sopnora ftetraplera n, 167. S. mitt phylla and a new fpecies from Sandwich Iflands, Thele are certainly very diftin€t from the above and every other fpecies hitherto enumerated under Sophora and Podalyria; and Mr, Sarispury has framed a feparate genus of them and given It the name of Epwarps1a, in honor of SypEnHAM EDWARDS, well known as a very fkilful botanical draft{man, nearly the whole of the drawings of the Botanical Magazine being the produ&ion of his pencil. In the Paradifus Londinenfis, this author had indeed before given -the charaéters of the fimple- | leaved {pecies, natives of the Cape of Good-Hope, to which he applied the name of Podalyria ; but as Lamarcx made his genus chiefly from Poparyria findoria, it would, we thinky — _ have been better to have retained this name for the genus es. - which our prefent plant is a {pecies. On this account we have — not thought it right to change the name of Poparyria fot — the prefent; but if this fhould be generally adopted for the © ‘ Cape fpecies, our plant and its congeners may be aptly enough called Tuermoprsis, from the refemblance feveral of them beat to Lupins.

Corona fegmenta non funt adeo equabiliter marginata, neque tam *lare definita ac in calathino, G oie ie In No, 934, we have obferved that the original odorus of Linnzus had been negligently converted by himfeif, in a fubfequent work, into a fpecies not really diftin&t from the calathinus of the fame. The firft was originally taken up In the Amenitates Academica, but changed in the §; “cies Plantarum, where the former fynonymy is dropped, and a an of the prefent plant alone quoted, This induced us to add it to that fpecies as the variety y ; but with a note of doubt— Now that the plant itfelf is before us, its being a variety of that is out of the queftion: we have called it 4¢frons, from an almoft equally-proportioned refemblance to both Fonquilla and calathinus. From the former it borrows fcent and general ap- pearance of the flower, with the proportions and pofition of the parts of fru€tification; except that here the fegments of the corolla are lefs truly obovate or widened upwards, and the ftyle not fo far advanced; the crown is longer and not rotate or fo widely expanded; yet fhorter than that of calathims, like which it is however fix-lobed, while the lobes are not fo even and regular, nor fo clearly defined: but the leaves are entirely thofe of this laft, except perhaps that they are fome- what lefs acuminate, as well as not quite fo flefhy. Is it a mule produftion between thefe two fpecies? The bulbs were imported about two years ago from’ Holland, by a Seed{man, in Bond-Street, under the name which we have adopted above for our Englifh one. Blooms in March and April. Has. generally only two leaves, which are nearly two feet Jong, but fometimes fhorter and equal to the fcape.

We are informed by TuounseEre, that it Varies with leaves of a plain brownifh green colour, and of a ively green variegated with white. We have not obferved the firft variety in our gardens, but the blotches are more or Tefs inclined to yellow. ; It flowers with us from May to July, but does not produce — fruit. This, according to KaMPrER, is an olive-fhaped berry . (more properly a drupe) with thin fweetifh-tafted flefh, en- clofing a nut with a very naufeous kernel. _. This fhrub was for fome years preferved in the flove, whence it was removed to the greenhoule or confervatory, and is now found to be as hardy as the Laurel or Lauruftinus. It Is — however handfomer in the greenhoufe, as the leaves generally ave a larger proportion of green than when expofed to the cold of our winters, Though introduced no longer ago than 1783, by Mr. Joun GRagFFER, it is now become very com- mon, being eafily propagated by cuttings or layers, and fee quiring no peculiarity of management or foil, os Ste twardeD nt Sanfonmds: P'w8 BT Lise hip JS WCso-FafcerrZ .

This is a fpecies diftin€&t from and. not a variety of the Eracris figured at No. 144 of this work, and which we fup- pofed to be the pungens of CaAvANILLES ;,not having at that time any idea of the number of fpecies that this genus has been fince found to contain, the plant from which that drawing was taken being the firft Epacris which flowered in. this country, Moft or all of the fpecimens which we have feen, of the fpecies now figured, have white flowers, but in no other refpeét can we trace any difference ; fo that we can but confider this as variety of the E. pungens of Cavanitces. It differs however in many very material points from that miftakenly fo called by us. Inthe latter the corol/ais more funnel-fhaped, its tube inflated in the middle, the lacinia narrower, fharper, and lefs patent, the faux more open, admitting the ftamens to appear in fight; the leaflets of the calyx are more lax and do not embrace the tube of the corolla fo tightly; the leaves are rather pointed than acuminate, and more recurved ; the fcales of the ne€tary are much fhorter; the flyle naked; the fligma capitate; and the filaments connate with the tube, yet they may be traced if examined with a lens oppofite the light. This circumftance of the real infertion of the filaments below the germen, fo evident in the prefent fpecies, ftrengthens very much the affinity ef this genus with the Eriea. This beautiful Epacris is one of the moft defirable that we have feen, the branches being more ereét and. lefs ftraggling than in either Eracais grandiflora or pulchella, though the flowers are much f{maller than in the former, and not fo agree- ably feented as in the latter.

Inits wild ftate, this beautiful little fpecies of Pink, which - found on the higheft mountains of Auftria, Stiria, and Dauphiny, bears only a fingle flower upon each ftalk ; a cha- fatter it lofes by cultivation, in common with moft other alpine plants. Dr, Smrru obferves that it varies with ee and acute leaves, but in all the fpecimens that we have ob- Ae aoe a x ferved, the leaves are broader towards the extremity and — become narrower downwards, which affords a remarkable — charaéter in this genus. The calyx fwelling in the middle, fo as to give it fomething of a barrel fhape, and its very long leaf- like lower fcales afford good, but not exclufively: appropriate charaéters. We have inferted the chara€lers of this plant, as taken from the colour of the flowers, quoted from PLumtisr’s MS. by Vicars, to fhew how exaétly thefe colours accord | with our own figure: indeed the colour in this genus will often afford a permanent charaéter. We are indebted for this very rare plant to Mr. CHANDLER, Nurferyman at Vauxhall.

This lingularity arifes principally from the large fize of the limb M proportion to that of the tube; for in faé, in all the globular-flowered Heaths, it is the tube of the corolla that is -Slobular, but in thefe the limb is in general fo minute that the tube is confidered as the whole corolla; whereas, in Erica unbergii, the limb is by far the moft confpicuous a Sigs 8 bo a * oie " og ik 4 as Ee ee re Gt. and is deeply divided into four, round-ovate, concave, laciniz, which ftanding nearly ereét, with refpe& to the tube, forma bell-fhaped cup of a deep fearlet colour, and produce a fplendid appearance. So that Profeffor Monrtn, who firlt defcribed this fpecies in the Upfal Tranfa&ions, does not deviate from the ufual language in defcribing the Heaths, when he fays. the corolla is globofe with a campanulate limb. We were favoured with the plant, from which our drawing “was made, by Meffrs. Lez and Kennepy, who raifed it from Cape feeds.

Since then however, we have affured our- felves, by means of the gentleman who made the drawing from which that plate was engraved, as well as from the prefent poffeffor of Mr. Curtis’s Botanic Garden, that we were miftaken, and that that figure really reprefents the European fpecies; we have been likewife fhewn fome of the progeny of the very parcel from which the fpéecimen for that plate was taken, and which are ftill flourifhing in the above garden. Itis however difficult, if not impoffible, to give -any fufficiently precife definition of the marks that diftinguifh the two {pecies; in our prefent plant, the ftigmas do not appear to be fo long — nor extended fo far beyond the anthers as in the European; the filaments here alfo appear to be proportionately fhorter ; both vary much in colour; but Bulbocodium is perfeétly hardy, and grows luxuriantly in the open border, foon forming a large tuft which blooms as early as April ; while ro/eam re- quires the fhelter of a greenhoufe and does not flower till about June. Our prefent fpecimen was received from the Cape of Good. Hope by Mr. Vers, in whofe garden it flowered laft july. The leaves in both fpecies are fomeétimes twice or three times longer, and fometimes fhorter than the ftem, Cructalum differs from both in having fligmas that do not overtop the anthers.
