P. S.--I inclose my card, in order that PERCURIOSUS (who evidently knows
something of the family) may communicate personally or by letter. I think
that I might possibly be able to give him some information in return for
his kindness.
_The Furze or Gorse in Scandinavia_ (Vol. vi., pp. 127. 377.).--Henfrey, in
his _Vegetation of Europe_, states that the furze (_Ulex Europæus_) occurs,
but not abundantly, in the south-western parts of the Scandinavian
peninsula. It is well known that in Central Germany it is a greenhouse
plant.
