BEAR'S-BERRY. The leaves boiled in an acid will dye a brown. ASPERULA tinctoria. WOODROOF. The roots give a red similar to madder. ANEMONE Pulsatilla. PASQUE-FLOWER. The corolla, a green tincture. ARUNDO Phragmites. COMMON REED-GRASS. The pamicle, a green. BERBERIS vulgaris. BARBERRIES. The inner bark, a yellow. BROMUS secalinus. BROME-GRASS. The panicle, a green. BIDENS tripartita.
The chaffinches clinked in the apple trees and the bees droned round the berberis bushes, and the waning sunlight slanted pleasantly across the garden plots, but between the neighbour households had sprung up a barrier of hate, permeating and permanent.
In cool, shady amphitheaters at the head of the trail there are groves of white silver fir and Douglas spruce, with ferns and saxifrages that recall snowy mountains; below these, yellow pine, nut pine, juniper, hop-hornbeam, ash, maple, holly-leaved berberis, cowania, spiraea, dwarf oak, and other small shrubs and trees.

And the golden note is prolonged through the pleasure grounds by the pale yellow of the laburnums, by the great yellow of the berberis, by the cadmium yellow of the gorse, by the golden wallflowers growing amid rhododendrons and laurels. And the transparent greenery of the limes shivers, and the young rooks swinging on the branches caw feebly.
Both species had, no doubt, fed on the same trees; as the Cynthia, like the Atlas cocoons, were all inclosed in leaves of the Berberis vulgaris, which shows that Cynthia is also a polyphagous species.

If you think, it couldn't be arranged differently." As he spoke a blackbird came running with a chuckle from underneath the berberis, looked at them with alarm, and ran back.
It was not till she was walking to the Spaniard's Road that a cloud seemed to come over her sky, and she reached home dejected. In the garden of the Freelands' old house was a nook shut away by berberis and rhododendrons, where some bees were supposed to make honey, but, knowing its destination, and belonging to a union, made no more than they were obliged.
They are as thickly branched as the box-edging of a garden walk, and so interwoven with several species of shrubs arbutus, berberis, chamatis, donaria, and escalonia as to present a smooth matted surface, seemingly that of the ground itself, under a close-cropped sward.
But the most striking objects were the evergreen berberis and mahonia, and the Darwinia, the larger sort of which was covered with brilliant orange, almost scarlet, flowers, which hung down in bunches, of the shape and size of small outdoor grapes. On our way back we took a sharp turn leading to the sea-shore, to which the forest extends in places, and rode along the beach towards the town.
