FLORULA
MORTOLENSIS

AN ENUMERATION

OF THE

PLANTS GROWING WILD

LA MORTOLA

The present catalogue, which was prepared during
the summer 1903, by order of Sir Thomas Hanbury,
K. C. V. O., is a list of plants growing wild at La
Mortola. Some of the numerous visitors, who come
to see the gardens are often not less interested in
these than in those Juxuriant exotic plants which are
cultivated here.

The rich vegetation is due to the great variety of
locality that exists. There are dry steep rocks, deep
and fertile soil, bare sunny banks, shady and woody
places, waterchannels, the bed of a torrent and the sea
shore.

The subsoil is almost entirely limestone, in many
places rich in fossils. Sand occurs only in one isolated
spot close to the garden entrance, but it contains chalk
as well and does not influence in any way the wild
vegetation.

La Mortola, Ventimiglia, Italy; April 1905.

THE OXALIS FAMILY.

h Oxalis cernua. Thunbg.

A common and rather pretty weed in the garden.
A native of the Cape of Good Hope but since 1806
spread over all the Mediterranean regions. Curiously
enough the plant is not known to produce seeds in
this region and can only be propagated by its roots.

The short styled form alone exists here.

Besides the plant is so perfectly acclimatized, that
it also changed its flowering season according to its
new home, that is from Winter to Spring, whilst
in Sth. Africa it flowers in July. The same is the

case with many Aloes cultivated in the garden.

Also a form with double flowers is occasionally

found.
