Moist sandy soil in pine-land, Winter Park near Wilmington, 
New Hanover County, North Carolina, October 16, 1912, 4917. 
Yucca GLAuca Nutt.? 
As compared with the prevalent growth of this widespread 
species, plants collected near Dallas, Texas (Reverchon 4029, 
4029A, F. W. Pennell 5407), apparently differ as follows: 
Leaves thickened, rigid, usually conspicuously fibrillose. Upper 
ts ovate, acute, pale, with broad white margins. Capsule 
50-60 mm. long, oblong, not or scarcely constricted. Seeds 
fla g. 1. Y. glauca Nutt. 
Leaves thinner, shorter, dull-green, terror tipped, Se ra 
above, more fibrillose at base. Upper bracts broadly lance- 
olate, acuminate, brown, with narrower palo te margins. Cap- 
e 30 mm. long, oblong-ovoid, evidently constricted about 
the middle Seeds more turgid, 6 mm. long. 2. Y¥« Sp. 
Full identification of the doubtful plant is left for someone 
more conversant with this group.
