p. 132: C. ORIENTALIS, Linnæus. ..... The C. glauca of Willdenow, figured in Berlinische Baumzucht (t. 4, fig. 1) , which is said to be in cultivation, but which we have not met with, is probably a blunt-leaved variety. 

p. 157:  The names of some few species which occur in garden catalogues are omitted from amongst the foregoing descriptions, in consequence of the plants they represent being quite unknown to us, having, as we suppose, passed out of cultivation. We particularly refer to C. biternata (white), C. chinensis (dull purple) , C. dahurica ( dull purple) , C. japonica (purple), C. terniflora (white), and C. triternata (white) . It may, we think, be safely assumed that they are unimportant as garden plants. One or two others, as C. Gebleriana (soongarica) and C. jubata, are essentially weedy in character ; while of some few which occur in the Continental trade lists, as C. Blackburniana, C. californica, C. Camusetii, C. indica, and C. Leeana, we have been unable to obtain any reliable information. C. nepalensis, another cataogue name, appears to be applied to C. montana in some plant lists.
