I have followed Wahlenberg in uniting the 5. aizoides and 

 autumnalis of Linnaeus. The Lapland and Swedish plant differs 

 in no respect from ours, and the leaves are but rarely naked at 

 their margins. We sometimes meet however with such in seed- 

 ling plants and others before the flowering season.
