Flowers and Insects. I have been much interested in Mr. Robertson's article on Flowers and Insects. Under Dicentra Cucullaria he refers to observations of others and myself in regard to the puncturing of the corolla by bees. I am pretty sure that the holes were made by honey-bees, as a large hive is in the next yard to mine, and my flowers constantly visited by its occupants. I have observed the same puncturing this year in my yard and that of Mr. George Hunt. It should be stated, however, that Dicentra is not indigenous here, and is only seen in cultivation. In the wild state it may, for all I know, be untouched. WW BAILEY. Providence, R..
