 var. /3. of Wahlenberg differs very slij,'htly from ct. ; but our var. y. is a very remarkable one, a foot and 

 sometimes a foot and a half hi^h, with leaves 4—5 inches long, the whole plant clothed with an almost silky 

 down. The species is, indeed, very different from the A. aJpina. It sends out no stolonesj but the root is 

 branched above, and the fertile stem is sometimes accompanied by one or two erect stei'Ile ones.
