The Lemon-scented Verbena is a native of Chili, and was discovered and introduced into England by Dombey.

I have a specimen of the common Vervain from the vicinity of Richmond, and Fanny has one from Cleveden.

The BUTTERWORT order comes next, and contains two families -that of the Butterwort, and that of the Bladderwort.

The common Butterwort (Pinguicula vulgaris, Plate XIV., fig. 1), grows in swamps about Richmond and in Swaledale. It has the appearance of a Violet upon a long stalk, with a star of thick, succulent, pale green leaves close to the ground. As soon as the plant is taken from the earth the stem curves round, and all the leaves turn back in a semicircle. It is used to coagulate milk: hence its name.

The Alpine Butterwort (P. alpina), is a rare Scotch plant. Its leaves closely resemble those of the common Butterwort, but its flower is cream colour, and has a tuft of yellow hairs within. I gathered my specimen on the Niesen, Switzerland.

The Large-flowered Butterwort (P. grandiflora), is an inhabitant of bogs in the south of Ireland, probably one of the plants belonging to the Spanish flora. The blossoms are twice as large as those of the common species, and have blue veins ; the corolla is five-cleft. It is a very beautiful plant; the only specimen I have ever seen was brought from Glengary, one of its few Irish habitats.

The Pale Butterwort (P. lusitanica), is a very elegant little plant. Its stem is hairy, and its bloom pale pink. Its foliage resembles that of the other species. Fanny has it from the bog by the Loe Pool, where the the Ivy-leaved Bell-Flower grew, and I have found it in abundance on similar ground between Brodick Bay and Corrie, Isle of Arran.

The Greater Bladderwort (Utricularia vulgaris, Plate XIV., fig. 2), is Edward's spoil from a deep pond near Hawkhurst. It grew in the centre of the pond, with just its spike of flowers above the water, and he was obliged to wade more than kneedeep to reach it, his feet sinking in the mud. Like the Butter
