(March 1866.) (Dichogamy)
I believe it wd be no more correct to infer from such case as the Bee O (which has contrivances for crossing) from the Subularia (which sometimes does open its flowers) (To go on summing up, or rather begin thus), that these plants were not occasionally crossed & that crossing was not important than it wd be to believe that the Ivy, from case of Russia does not seed - the Jussiæ do- Mosses do
