_Helleborus foetidus_, stinking hellebore, bear's foot, or
setterworth,--all over the High Wood and Coneycroft Hanger: this

a violent remedy, and ought to be administered with caution.
_Helleborus viridis_, green hellebore,--in the deep stony lane on the
left hand just before the turning to Norton Farm, and at the top of
Middle Dorton under the hedge: this plant dies down to the ground early
in autumn, and springs again about February, flowering almost as soon as
it appears above the ground.
_Vaccinium oxycoccos_, creeping bilberries, or cranberries,--in the bogs
of Bin's Pond.
_Vaccinium myrtillus_, whortle, or bleaberries--on the dry hillocks of
Wolmer Forest.

Bin's Pond.

_Chlora perfoliata_, _Blackstonia perfoliata_, _Hudsoni_, perfoliated
yellow-wort--on the banks in the King's Field.
_Paris quadrifolia_, herb of Paris, true-love, or oneberry--in the Church
Litten Coppice.
_Chrysosplenium oppositifolium_, opposite golden saxifrage--in the dark
and rocky hollow lanes.
_Gentiana amarella_, autumnal gentian or fellwort--on the Zigzag and
Hanger.
_Lathraea squamaria_, tooth-wort--in the Church Litten Coppice under some
hazels near the foot-bridge, in Trimming's garden hedge, and on the dry
wall opposite Grange Yard.
_Dipsacus pilosus_, small teasel--in the Short and Long Lith.
_Lathyrus sylvestris_, narrow-leaved, or wild lathyrus--in the bushes at
the foot of the Short Lith, near the path.
