(19 May 1843) Page(s) 352. [This is NOT Clematis macrophylla Dne]
Clematis recta .... Spielart ***) macrophylla, Blättchen herz- und eyförmig - lang (4-5 Zoll), stumpfspitzig, Doldentrauben sehr reichblüthig, Sepalen gross und breit spatelförmig. Diese Form bildet gleichsam das Vereinigungsglied zwischen den Unterarten a) [Clematis recta genuina] und b) [Clematis recta stricta]; wie sich Uebergänge in die vorhergehenden Spielarten finden.
Translation: Clematis recta .... variety ***) macrophylla, leaves heart- and eye-shaped - long (4-5 inches), blunt-pointed, corymbs very richly flowered, sepals large and broadly spatulate. This form forms, as it were, the link between the subspecies a) [Clematis recta genuina] and b) [Clematis recta stricta]; how transitions into the previous varieties can be found.
(1856) Page(s) 735. The final issue of the 2. volume of June pictures a green Rose, it is a greened bloom of R. indica W., which plant, crowned with an award in Mannheim, has been purchased by Mr. J. Aschieri.
(27 Mar 1846) Page(s) 229. Paeonia Wittmanniana Hartwiss in litt.: herbacea, fol. triternatis, foliolis interregimis ovatis rugosis subtus pubescentibus caesiis, petalis ovatis luteis, carpellis erectis tomentosis apice recurvis. This is a really yellow-blooming peony. The Horticultural society has received it from Mr. N. v. Hartwiss, director of the garden in Nikita on Crimea. Up to now, the plant was mentioned only in a letter of Councillor of State Dr. Fischer to Sir Wm. Hooker (Lond. journ. of bot. April 1842. p. 207.), in which it is said that "Mr. Hartwiss has received many interesting plants from Abkhazia from Count Worontzoff, among these a yellow-blooming Paeonia". Mr. Wittmann, after whom she has been named, is, as the editor believes, a traveller in the tauric Caucasus, who later became a gardener in Odessa. The specimen of the horticultural society is declared to be the sole one in England. 25 Guineas have apparently been demanded for a plant in one of the large nurseries of the continent. (In the newest catalogue of Messrs. Booth in Flottbeck [Hamburg] she is listed with 90 Marks.)
(29 Oct 1852) Page(s) 775. Paxton's Flower Garden... Rosa Fortuniana Lindl.

M. Hlzs.
