Swampy ground ; rare and local ; Pine Barrens and lower part 

 of the Cape May peninsula. 



This plant was known to both Pickering and Nuttall from 

 the State, though who first discovered it in New Jersey I cannot 

 say. Parker obtained it at Atsion, Burlington County, September 

 26, 1867; Bassett, near Hammonton, August 9, 1879, and Gross 

 near Landisville. On July 22, 1905, I discovered it below Cape 

 May Court House, and subsequently it has turned up in several 

 bogs in lower Cape May. 



Its strict stem and hairy leaves give it quite a different aspect 

 from the other species of the genus found in our region. 



Fl. — Early Jlily to late August. Fr. — Early August to late 



September.
