Hardwicke's science-gossip : an illustrated medium of interchange and gossip for students and lovers of nature . Fig. 6. Ostrich Fern. The Royal Fern is a great favourite, and so wouldbe its foreign relatives if they were better known.The Cinnamon Osmund [Osmunda cinnamomea) fromNorth America, is equally beautiful, and quite dis-tinct in appearance. So also is Claytons Osmund{Osmunda Claytoniana), another hardy North Ame-rican species. Either of these would flourish in theopen air, and prove a great acquisition to any onewith room to grow them. 84 HARDWICKES SCIENCE-GOSSIP. [April 1, 1867. The prince of hardy exotics is the Ostrich Fern(Struthiopteris Germanicd), which is not half so wellknown as it deserves to be.

Our own Lady Eern is so beautiful that a know-ledge of it is sufficient to induce any one to pur-chase a Lady Eern on trust, and if it should beMichauxs Lady Eern {Athjrium Michauxii) theywill not by any means be disappointed. This NorthAmerican species does not attain more than half thesize of the British, which perhaps is in itself a re-commendation. Amongst the Spleenworts there is a hardy specieswhich may be called the Narrow-leaved Spleenwort(Aspleniim angustifolium), which may be grown ona rockwork out of doors. The Maiden-hair Fern is often made the subjectof complaint that it is too delicate for the out-doorfernery, except
