It is here intended to illustrate the Botany of the flowering plants and ferns of the neighbourhood of Poole. For this purpose, it is proposed to give a succint account of the general aspect and nature of the district, an alphabetical list of the plants contained in it, and the habitats of some of the rarer species.

In describing the general aspect and nature of the locality, it appears necessary to give a short account of its geological features, but this will be done as briefly as possible.

The district on which Poole lies, is denominated the Poole Trough, being a portion of the Isle of Wight basin, comprising a considerable part of its western extremity; though not its extreme point. Its northern boundary is between Wimborne and Hinton Martell, beyond which the chalk extends over a large tract of country. The southern boundary is a line of chalk, passing through Purbeck from near Corfe Castle to Studland, and corresponding with the chalk stratum running through the Isle of Wight. From the chalk line in Purbeck, passing south, the successively inferior strata rapidly appear, as far as the Portland stone, and Kimmeridge clay beds; the former occuring at Tilly-whim, and the latter near Encombe at the place whence it takes its name. To the west of Poole, the chalk strata, forming the northern and southern boundaries, converge, but do not entirely meet, until they arrive as far west as Dorchester, which is the extreme western point of the Isle of Wight basin. To the east, there is no other boundary than a general rise of surface; and even this does not exist immediately along the coast.

Thus, it appears that there is a large district left by the chalk, which, near Poole, is about fifteen miles in diameter. This is occupied by the plastic clay, the level of which, descending from the northern boundary before named, sinks at Poole, below the level of the sea, and rises again on the coast of Purbeck, forming the capacious haven known as Poole Harbour.

Large patches of clay and sand, as is usual in this formation, occur throughout this district, both varying much in colour. There are also large beds of gravel, some of them very extensive. It would be irrelevant here, to speak of the excellence of the clay from this trough, and it is too well known to render this necessary. The gravel is in some places extremely fine and bright, in fact, the best I have any where seen.

As it is not professed here to give a lengthened geological account, it is not necessary to expatiate farther on the subject, but to apply the remarks already made, to the Botany of the district.^[1]

It is evident then, that there is a great diversity of soil in the neighbourhood of Poole, and a very rich Flora may naturally be anticipated: when, however, all the peculiarities and modifying influences have been cited, still higher expectations will be raised, yet I feel confident that no one will be prepared for the very numerous catalogue, which this district affords; and those who have taken a casual glance of it, and that only, will be still more surprised. No strangers ever come within many miles of Poole, without being struck with the apparent sterility of the scene. To the north of Poole as far as Wimborne and extending east and west to Christchurch and Wareham, dry heath land is the prevailing feature of the country. This is the general character also of the plastic clay portion of Purbeck. But to proceed to particulars:—

Poole is situated on a peninsula on the north side of the extensive harbour, and is very little above its level. I leave, however, the remarks I intend to make on the maritime botany of Poole, to a future period.

On quitting Poole in every direction there is an elevation of surface, which, however, is not considerable. The lower situations are generally dry pasture, but the higher are the heath lands before named. Both are cultivated, but the soil is not very productive except as garden ground. There is no river or stream of any importance within about five miles of Poole. In many places, however, there are superficial springs; these are so highly ferruginous as to stain every thing they come in contact with, and deposit a considerable quantity of red peroxide of iron on the vegetables about them. Indeed the springs in general in the villages around Poole, are so strongly chalybeate as to be extremely unpalatable, The water from these springs, in many places, is interrupted in its course by the hills of gravel before alluded to, or by the beds of clay, giving rise, in some parts to pseudo-meadow land, as in different parts of Parkstone and Longfleet.

These situations yield many of the meadow plants, but for most of them it is necessary to resort to the genuine meadows a little farther distant. Some of the rarer plants, however, are found in land of this description, as for example, the Bartsia viscosa, Lin., which with us is quite a common plant. An abundance of oak trees, growing perfectly spontaneously, add greatly to the beauty of these fertile tracts. Though there are no rivers very near Poole, there are at about two miles distant occasional small streams and two ponds or tarns, one at Parkstone, and the other at Creekmoor, the latter containing abundance of the beautiful white water lily. In all these situations the Scutellaria minor, Lin., abounds.

But meadow land is not so general a result of our springs as bogs, of which we have an immense extent, and all the varieties denominated moist heaths, turfy bogs, spongy bogs, &c., and in many parts there are large tracts of peat as perfect as I have seen in Scotland or Ireland. Between the roads to Longham and Christchurch, and within four miles of Poole, are hundreds of acres of peat; one of the most remarkable instances of which is to be seen on the former road, about three miles and a half from Poole, where it passes over the small stream of Bourne. There is here a deep ravine about half a mile broad, in which lies an immense quantity of peat, containing large trees in a bituminous state. The peat here is fifteen feet deep.^[2] In many parts of Longfleet, Hamworthy, and Purbeck, are large tracts of the same kind of soil. In all these situations the Rhynchospora alba, Vahl., and Rhynchospora fusca, Lin. abound, with many other of the Cyperacæ of which the most general is Schœnus nigricans, Lin. The heaths blossom freely in these districts, particularly the Erica tetralix, Lin., and the botany of them in general is very similar to that of the more northern regions. I do not mean to infer that the rarer northern plants are found with us, but that the bulk of vegetation in these situations is much the same as in similar soil, in Cumberland and Scotland, as for example, the two Ericæ and the Calluna grow in profusion, with the Melica cœrulea, Lin., and Myrica gale, Lin., of which there are hundreds of acres in the south east of Dorsetshire. We have, however, in abundance in one situation, what has not been found in Scotland, viz. the Erica ciliaris, Lin. In a locality of the kind already mentioned in the Isle of Purbeck, which I visited last August, accompanied by my friend, Dr. Macreight, I enjoyed the no ordinary gratification of viewing this rarest and most beautiful of the English heaths to great advantage. Throughout nearly the whole space from Arne to Corfe Castle, a distance of fully four miles, we found it in profusion. Heath was the prevailing vegetation throughout the whole extent, and this the dominant species. Growing in its native bogs it is certainly not inferior to a Menziesia of which it has much the general habit. It is taller and more shrubby than the other British species of Erica.

Many parts of the more superficial bogs are adorned with the splendid flowers of Gentiana pneumonanthe, Lin., as well as with the three Droseræ and Anagallis tenella, Lin., all of which, together with Pinguicula lusitanica, Lin., Exacum filiforme, Sm., and both varieties of Scirpus Savii, Spreng., may be esteemed common plants in our bogs.

The residue of the plastic clay district is, it must be owned, that barren heath land which gives the prevailing feature to the district within about six miles around Poole. The Agrostis setacca, Curt., is the only grass which will flourish on this soil during the dry season, but this is so abundant as to constitute, with its rigid and shining panicles, a striking feature in our heaths.

Beyond this barren portion, extending in every direction towards the chalk, before arriving at it, the soil is a rich loam, and extremely fertile. The surface in these situations is also beautifully diversified and wooded with oaks. Spots of this kind are found in many directions, averaging the distance of five miles and a half from Poole, as at Studland, Organford, Lytchett, Corfe Mullen, Sturminster Marshall, the neighbourhood of Wimborne, Canford, Longham, Cudnell, and Ensbury. These places afford the plants of woods, coppices, and shady places; and at Sturminster Marshall, Corfe Mullen, Wimborne, Canford, and Longham, the course of the Stour and its meadows yield the river and meadow plants. The soil covering the chalk in these fertile districts is shallow, the chalk itself appearing at Lytchett and Studland, about six miles distant from Poole. These are its nearest points. At a little farther distance in either direction, chalk downs and consequently chalk plants become abundant.

It remains to speak of the maritime botany of Poole. The harbour is a large sheet of water, which, though containing deep channels, is for the most part very shallow, the tide when it falls leaving immense tracts of mud which are covered with Zostera marina, Lin. In some situations where small streams empty themselves into the harbour, meadow land occurs, the lower parts of which are frequently covered with the tide, affording salt marshes with their plants. The rest of the shore of the harbour varies much, but in general it is muddy. There is abundance of Salicornia, the maritime grasses, and other maritime plants.

A piece of land at Baiter, which is an island at high water, on which stands the "Powder House," is very interesting in its botanical productions;—its vegetation consisting almost entirely of Chenopodium fruticosum, Schrad., Atriplex portulacoides, Lin., Cochlearea danica, Lin., C. anglica, Lin., Statice armeria, Lin., and S. Limonium, Lin. The Chenopodium fruticosum is very ornamental, the plants being very numerous: they are shrubby and evergreen and somewhat resembling the juniper at a little distance. They average two feet in height and are some of their very old, having very hard wood, about two inches in diameter near the root.

Poole harbour contains several islands, all of the plastic clay formation, which, though picturesque, and beautifully situated, afford little variety of indigenous species. The very largest of these is Brownsea island, the watering residence of Sir Charles Chad, Bart., which, among many other natural beauties, possesses several fresh water tarns, similar to those of Parkstone and Creekmoor, one of which contains a great abundance of the Typha angustifolia, Lin. The woods in Brownsea abound with Listera ovata, Br.

The mouth of the harbour is about four miles from Poole, and is composed of two valvate sand banks; the external one, the South Haven bank, is connected with Purbeck, and the other, the North Haven, with the main land of Dorsetshire and Hampshire. These banks are maintained by the creeping roots of Ammophila arundinacea, Host., Carex arenaria, Lin., and Festuca rubra, Lin. The beach on both havens is fine hard sand, and from the North Haven continues so to the east, but from the South Haven point following the coast, the chalk and succeeding inferior strata make their appearance, and the beach is soon lost in the steep and high cliffs, which characterize the coast of Purbeck. Before, however, the beach is lost, it becomes changed from sandy to pebbly, which is its character in Studland bay.

There is a striking difference between the botany of the harbour, and that of the open sea beach:—the same plants are rarely met with in the two situations: Juncus maritimus, Sm., and Carex extensa, Good., are remarkable exceptions. Atriplex patula is found both on the muddy shore of the harbour, and on the sandy beach of the open sea; but the varieties are remarkably different.

The Ballast quay at Ham, opposite Poole, frequently yields plants, not elsewhere found in the neighbourhood. Linum usitatissimum, Lin., Sinapis tenuifolia, Br., S. muralis, Br., Cynosurus echinatus, Lin., and Medicago denticulata, Willd., are the principal. Trifolium resupinatum, Lin., found near this quay, must, I fear, be attributed to the ballast.

From the above remarks it is evident that the variety of soil is very great for so limited a space. A rich Flora is the natural result.

I have already transgressed my intended limits, but I must yet make a few observations in reference to the effects of climate on the vegetation of this district. Poole, being low, nearly surrounded by water, and encompassed by hills beyond, is remarkably warm; the soil, in general, declines to the south, and from its sandy nature, except in particular spots, becomes very dry in the summer: this circumstance is increased by the great deficiency of partial summer rains, they being attracted by the high chalk range, which so nearly surrounds us. From these causes, vegetation is pretty much suspended during the hot weather, except in the bogs and meadows.

When, however, in the autumn, the rain becomes more general, the warm situation and aspect of the soil have a far different effect. After the suspension of vegetation, when heat and moisture are again enabled to exert their united influence, the herbaceous plants shoot forth and blossom almost as in spring.^[3] The heaths also have a second flowering far more luxuriant than the first, there being often spikes of Calluna vulgaris, Salisb., from six to nine inches in length. At this season, too, even the most barren of the heath lands show their beauty, and the surface which had appeared sterile and unattractive, through the period of the year generally deemed the most lovely, now suddenly assumes the most vivid colours:—the bright orange yellow of the dwarf furze, the rich purple of the heath, and the vivid green of the broad blades of Melica cærulea, Lin., existing in varied proportions, give to the surface a splendour of colouring scarcely to be conceived of by those who hare not witnessed it. The large furze, Ulex europæus, Lin., has generally a second flowering at this season, and during many winters continues in blossom pretty freely, until the more abundant flowering in the spring, when it is the great ornament of our hills and hedges, and produces a general fragrance every where. Many other plants continue to flower through the whole autumn, and during the early winter months. There are generally violets during the Christmas week and on New Year's day, and many exotics are frequently tempted to blossom, at this season, as the Persian Lilac, Syringa persica, Lin., and the Laburnum, Cytisus laburnum, Lin.: Myrtles and Pomegranates also stand the winter in the open ground. Indeed the whole winter here is remarkably mild. There is comparatively little snow in the immediate neighbourhood of Poole, rain frequently falling here, whilst there is snow at only a few miles distance.^[4]

With regard to the botany of Poole, in relation to the tables of Mr. Watson, it may be observed, that in the immediate neighbourhood it is rather British, than exclusively English; and rather a larger proportion of western plants occurs than might be expected. The existence, (on a sandy portion of the beach at Studland,) of the Cynodon Dactylon, Pers., hitherto found only on the coast of Cornwall, is an interesting fact.

The subjoined list is similarly marked to that published by the Botanical Society of Edinburgh; for considering it desirable that some general standard should be made use of in undertakings of this sort, I have adopted this, and recommend the same practice in other localities. I have, however, added similar marks after the names, indicative of a shorter distance,^[5] and have chosen that of eight miles as one not too extensive, but which, nevertheless, contains nearly every variety of soil and surface, that can be found in a much larger circuit. Some plants are marked as more common within the smaller distance than in the larger. As the larger district contains the smaller, it is obvious that the numerical number of specimens cannot be less, but must be more, unless the species be entirely confined to the smaller circuit. The proportional frequency, however, may be greater within the smaller distance, and, therefore, so marking the species does not involve a contradiction as might at first sight appear.

I have in all cases, for the sake of more easy reference, adopted the same generic names as those of the Edinburgh list, without regard to any difference of my own opinion. I have not however observed this rule with respect to species and varieties, with regard to which I have used my own judgment.

3. I commenced forming an herbarium at the beginning of July, and was able before the winter, to collect most of the herbaceous spring plants.
4. To the mild climate of Poole is to be ascribed its peculiar salubrity, though doubtless also much is due to the cleanliness of the inhabitants. We are subject to no endemic disorder, and epidemics are never so severe in this as in most places. This was strikingly the fact with the influenza, which, though here as every where else very general, was in no instance fatal. Poole, though lying low and thickly populated, is very little subject to typhus or intermittent fevers.
5. The Society's list is marked in reference to a distance of 16 miles from Edinburgh.

For many of the localities alluded to in the above marks, and some of which are named in the references below, I am indebted to the kindness of others, but my limits do not permit me to make the acknowledgment in each seperate case.^[1] I may here, however, record my obligations to my excellent friend Dr. William Bullar, of Southampton, who formerly resided several years at Poole; to my lamented friend, the late John Rowe, Esq., of Wimborne, and others for some of the nearer localities, and for many of the more distant, to Miss Maria Attersoll, of Weymonth, to Mrs. Mary Frampton, of Dorchester, to the Rev. A. Bloxam, who left at Mr. Commnins' library, a list of the plants he found during a visit to Weymouth, and to Mr. Commins, for his kindness in lending me the list.

I have availed myself also of the following works, "Pulteney's catalogue of the more rare plants of Dorsetshire;" "Turner and Dillwyn's Botanists' Guide;" "Watson's new Botanists' Guide;" and "Sheridan's Guide to the Isle of Wight,"—a large portion of the island lying within thirty miles of Poole.

For other information in the last named locality, I am indebted to the kindness of Dr. Bromfield, of Ryde, for the use of his MS. of a Flora of the Isle of Wight, which he is about shortly to publish.

1. The author of this appendix is about to publish a Flora of Dorsetshire, in which he will have the opportunity of correcting this omission. To aid him in this undertaking, and to render it as complete as possible, he takes this public opportunity of requesting the botanists of the county, to inform him of any of the localities of the rarer plants, which may have come under their notice. All information of this kind, or on any other subject of local botanical interest, addressed to him at Poole, will be thankfully received and duly acknowledged.
2. I have given this name (louchitioides) to a variety of this fern, (Aspidium angulare, Willd.), resembling the so named variety of A. lobatum, Sw.
3. This is a variety of Linaria spuria, Mill., first noticed I believe, by Dr. Pulteney, in the situation above named, and subsequently in other situations, by Sir W. Hooker and others, but without any distinctive appellation. It resembles the Peloria of L. vulgaris, Mœnch., and I have therefore given it the name of pelorioides.
4. In 1831, I discovered this second British station of Trifolium Resupinatum, L., at the east end of the rope-walk, close by the anchorage, at Ham. From specimens which I have distributed to different botanists, it is now generally known to grow near Poole, though a great mistake prevails as to its frequency and abundance. Accordingly Watson in the supplement to his "Botanists' Guide," writes, "Shores of Poole harbour, but I did not find it.—W. A. Bromfield. MSS." and Sir W. Hooker, in the fourth edition of his "British Flora," gives it as found in "meadows about Poole." The plant was always confined to a few square yards in the above named situation. These circumstances are correctly stated in the Supplement to the English Botany, in the the text accompanying Tab. 2789, which is taken from a specimen I sent Mr. Sowerley in 1834. I fear from its being so near the ballast quay, it can scarecly be considered indigenous, and I am sorry also to add, that of late it has become nearly extinct.
