History of Rare Plants Observed in Pannonia

The older leaves are without thorns and are somewhat rounder and smaller. The tree carries many flower catkins original: "iulos" on the ends of the small branches, just like the Spanish variety. These open into tiny yellow, mossy flowers covered in pollen and a fine powder. Acorns do not grow from these flowers, as they are sterile. Instead, they grow from other separate stalks. I do not know if they reach maturity. I only saw them when they first appeared at the end of May. At that time, the tree was blooming abundantly.

II. ANOTHER tree of vast size grew in the royal courtyard garden at Westminster. It cannot be compared in size to the first one, though its trunk is so thick that no one can wrap their arms around it. This tree seemed to differ slightly from the first in its leaves. They are smaller and more circular, sometimes no larger than boxwood. They do not have any sharp spines. Otherwise, they are grayish underneath and green on top in the same way. They grow on the branches in an unequal and disorganized order. I did not see any flowers on this tree, and no one could tell me if it bears fruit.

Because I only showed the Holm Oak term: "Ilicem" refers to the Holm Oak or Quercus ilex with its fruit in my Spanish observations, I have added a branch of the first tree with its flowers here for the benefit of students.

ON THE DWARF ALPINE WILD PINE, AND OTHER CONIFERS. CHAPTER VI.

Description of the Dwarf Wild Pine. This Wild Pine term: "Pinaster" refers to a species of wild pine does not grow taller than a human. It divides right at the root into flexible and yielding branches. Though the branches are thick, they are covered in a wrinkled, dense bark and spread out wide. Two leaves always grow together from the same small sheath original: "tubulo" on each scale. This is similar to the Pine and the common Wild Pine. However, these leaves are more fleshy, thicker, and shorter. They have a blunter tip and a deep color
