PALIURUS ACULEATUS (_syn P. australis_).--Christ's Thorn, or Garden

Thorn. Mediterranean region, 1596. A densely-branched, spiny shrub, with

small leaves, and not very showy, yellowish-green flowers. It grows and

flowers freely enough in light, peaty earth, but is not very hardy, the

tips of the branches being usually killed back should the winter be at

all severe.
