,,henry ,g4 ,,bohn1 ,,york ,,street1 ,,covent ,,garden4 #ahde4 ,,dissertation concluded4 ,the limits of this extensive family may be considered1 with some degree of accuracy1 to be bounded by about three hundred 7species and distinct varieties73 consequently1 in the termination of this ,volume1 the ,genus may be regarded as half delineated4 ,the ,cape of ,good ,hope has been1 and still continues to be1 the emporium for this unrivalled tribe of plants2 and unless some new source should be found to extend this already numerous ,genus1 by the discovery of some unexpected mine of novelty2 we otherwise have little doubt but the termination of the ,sixth ,volume will be found to contain all the species and distinct varieties4 ,the difficulty of preserving many of this fine tribe is still a subject of general complaint1 and by no means easy to be remedied where the situation is low1 as the great enemies of the ,ericas are the fogs1 which invariably gravitate towards the marshes and low grounds2 but where the situation is elevated and open1 the preservation of the major part of them is by no means so difficult4 ,greater care is requisite in the watering of them than is generally imagined1 as too much renders them weak1 and subjects them to damp off2 whilst1 on the contrary1 too little is frequently fatal2 for1 if they once droop their heads for want of water1 they very rarely survive the neglect4 ,,erica acuminata4 ,,descriptio4 ,anther mutic1 inclus4 ,flores fasciculati1 sub-terminales4 ,pedunculi breves4 ,corolla sub-cylindrica1 ore arctata1 pollicaris1 purpurea2
