Rocky woods, Riley County, Kansas, 1 June, 1895, collected by J. 
B. Norton, and distributed for A. Canadensis, In respect to the size 
of the plant, its general appearance, and even the form of its flowers, 
the species is for more like A. vulgaris; but the flowers are smaller, 
even less in size than those of A. Canadensis, yet of the pattern of A. 
vulgaris, having large widely spreading sepals, so that the flower is as 
broad as long. The color of them does not seem to have been scarlet,
