Canary grass. — treated just like maize — ie. Art. crossed roughly & spont. self- - fert— seeds

(May 28 1869 — two rows of seeds were sown out of doors, equally thick, but wonderfully more of crossed have come up — so that crossed row looks quite thick & self row now quite thin.)

(June 6. 1869.— Greenhouse measured to extreme tips.)

(Aug. 24th 1869 measured to tips of tallest culm in each pot.)

[Pot 1-3 note:] All the crossed plants (in rather small pots in greenhouse) produced only 20 flower-heads; whilst the selfs produced 28! Anomalous result. —

Canary Grass. Aug. 24. 1869— Two rows in K. Garden— The selfs, from death of seedlings under ground, this (& from not crossed not being afterwards enough thinned) were thinner on the grounds, & these had an advantage.

I carefully yet picked out from each row the 12 tallest [anthers].—
