name for these beautiful trees is Snowy Mespilus.

ARALIA SPINOSA and _A. chinensis_.*

ARBUTUS ANDRACHNE.--Flowers in February and March.

ARCTOSTAPHYLOS ALPINA.--Plenty of this found in north of Scotland, but
somewhat difficult to establish in gardens. _A. Uva-ursi._--Freer in
growth than the preceding. Both species are low-creeping shrubs suitable

grey tone.

specimens of _B. Aquifolium_, the Mahonia, become very ornamental with
age.

BETULA ALBA* (the Silver Birch).--A very hardy tree, beautiful both in
summer and winter. The pendulous variety is the best. Its branches are
proof against all winds. No tree is so well adapted for planting close

light. _B. utilis_, _B. papyrifera_, _B. populifolia_.

erectus_--Very beautiful in small beds.
