With 



Michaux and Pursh consider it as 



a variety of the C. Glabra. Linn^us, (after Miller,) Muhlenberg and 

 Nuttall admit it a species. Miller remarks that it differs from the prece- 

 ding by roots less disposed to creep, broader leaves more deeply serrated 

 and by its purple flowers. Plukenet however, to whom Linnaeus refers, 



describes and figures his Purpurea with very narrow leaves, but as distinct- 

 ly petiolate. ^ 



Grows in the mountains of Carolina and Georcria. Mich. Pursh,
