Rhodora 



[November 



Lamium album in Maine. — In a neighbor's field there is a small 

 well established and thrifty plot of Lamium album. The people who 

 own the field have never had the plant in cultivation and until I found 

 it last spring they did not know of its existence. More than a quarter 

 of a mile distant, in the busy part of the town, there is a thrifty 

 growth of the Lamium near an old house long used as a department 

 of a large store. The present owner says that the horses eat the 

 plant off several times a year and that it has no care, yet it maintains 

 a vigorous growth. He calls the plant " Snowflake," as 1 was taught 

 to do. It is possible that we may yet be able to prove it a worthy 

 wild flower of Maine. — Jennie M. H. Morrell, Gardiner, Maine.
