L-FLOWERING TREES.-

Another point which we consider to be worthy of consideration is the very few, flow ering trees which are planted along our. roads. We have plenty of banians, and excellent shade trees they are, but they are not particularly beautiful. There are several species of the Accacia family, we believe, which would grow well in this climate and some of them bear large masses of gaily coloured flowers which would make them most attractive additions to our list of shade trees. They give a good shade, grow fairly rapidly and are, we understand, no more expensive to rear and plant out than the less showy banian. Take, for ins tance the red-lowering accacia "known in the Straits as "The Flame of the Forest." This grows well in Macao, and one or two isolated specimens are to be found in Hong kong gardens: In the spring the tree is covered with a

mass of flame-coloured blossoms that show how well it deserves its name, and the sight of an avenue of these beautiful trees covered with their gaudy blossonis, is one to be remembered. Such an avenue exists in sleepy old Macao, and yet go-ahead Hongkong does not ever appear to have thought of planting one.

The lot is separated from the Club-house by a lane, and we believe it is in contemplation to use it for the erection of an annexe, to be connected with the main building by a bridge.
