Text Appearing Before Image:
iable condition of their pollen grains. Whether the long-styled plants are now changing their nature, as would appear tobe the case from the variability of their pollen grains, and arebecoming more masculine, I will not pretend to conjecture.Still, the bare suggestion will have an interest to those who arestudying what are known as the facts of evolution. Mr. Darwinhas evidently a deeper interest in our little plant, in this con-nection, than his expression, I will not pretend to conjecture,implies; for in another part of his work, he says, Certainappearances countenance the belief that the reproductive sys-tem of Phlox subulata is undergoing a change of some kind.The extracts show with what interest our Moss-Pink is beingregarded in science. To the florist the Moss-Pink offers some attractions. Itis not only of easy culture, but is extremely variable in nature,both in color and form. We give some variations on our plate;but there are changes in form as well as in color. T r Plate 19.
