14. EPILOBIUM angustifolium. A plant of singular ornament. There is also a white variety of this found in gardens. 15. ERICA vulgaris. There is now in cultivation in the gardens a double-flowering variety of this plant, which is highly interesting and of singular beauty. It grows readily in bog earth, and is raised by layers. 16. ERICA Daboeica. IRISH HEATH.--A plant of singular beauty and of easy culture; and being of small growth and almost constantly in bloom, has also obtained a place in the shrubbery. 17. FRITILLARIA Meleagris. A very ornamental bulbous plant, of which the Dutch gardeners have many improved varieties, varying in the colour and size of the blossoms: these are usually imported in August, and should be immediately planted, as the bulbs will not keep long when out of ground, unless they are covered with sand. 18. GALANTHUS nivalis. SNOWDROP.--The first of the productions of Flora which reminds us of the return of spring after the dark and dreary days of winter. This plant is also made double by cultivation, but is not handsomer than the common wild one. The best time for planting the bulbs of Snowdrops is in the month of September. 19. GENTIANA verna. VERNAL GENTIAN.--A delightful little plant of the finest blue colour the Flora exhibits in all her glory: its scent is also delightful: it is somewhat scarce and difficult to procure; but if more generally known, few gardens would be destitute of such a treasure. It is of tolerably easy culture, and grows well in loam: it is small, and is best kept in a pot. 20. GENTIANA Pneumonanthe. MARSH GENTIAN.--Is also a beautiful plant, and grows well in any moist place. From its beautiful blue flowers it is well adapted to the flower garden; it delights in bog earth. 21. GERANIUM phaeum. BLACK-FLOWERED GERANIUM.--This is a perennial, and makes a fine ornamental plant for the shrubbery: it will grow in any soil and situation. 22. GLAUCUM Phoeniceum. PURPLE HORN POPPY.--An annual flower of singular beauty, and deserving a place in the flower garden. 23. GNAPHALIUM margaritaceum. AMERICAN CUDWEED.--This plant affords beautiful white flowers, which drying and keeping their colour, it is worth attention on that account, as it affords a pleasing variety with the different Xeranthema, and others of the like class in winter. 24. HIERACUM aurantiacum. GRIM-THE-COLLIER.--This is an old inhabitant of our gardens, and affords a pleasing variety. 25. HOTTONIA palustris. WATER VIOLET.--This is a plant of singular beauty in spring; it is an aquatic, and makes a fine appearance in our ponds in the time of its bloom. 26. IBERIS amara. CANDYTUFT.--An annual flower of considerable beauty and interest. We have several varieties of this sold in the seed-shops. 27. IMPATIENS NOLI ME TANGERE.--A very curious flower which is grown as an annual. The construction of the seed-vessel causing the seeds to be discharged with an elastic force is a pleasing phaenomenon.
