in a letter.— The female is figured in Sa/, Wob. and in Eng. Bot., 
where Smith notes that he had not seen the catkins of the male. 
For a leaf, see our fig. 36. inp. 1611. Leaves elliptic oblong, toothed, 
wavy, thin and crackling, very glabrous. Stipules heart-shaped, 
about equal to the footstalks. Bracteas obovate, bearded. Ovary 
lanceolate, glabrous, on a short glabrous stalk. (Smith Eng. Fl.) 
According to Koch, the leaves are obovate-oblong, serrated with 
crowded and deepish teeth. (Comm., p.43.) Sir J. E. Smith, who 
considered this sort as a distinct species, described it as having an 
aspect “altogether singular among our British willows, resembling 
some sort of apple tree rather than a willow.” The stem is from 3 ft. 
or 4 ft. to 6 ft. high, crooked, with numerous irregular, spreading, 
crooked, or wavy branches, most leafy about the ends; their bark 
blackish ; the young ones hairy. There are plants of S. hastata 
and S. h. malifolia at Woburn and Flitwick.

small, and appressed teeth, or almost entire. Accord- 1353 
ing to Forbes, the leaves are elliptic-lanceolate, sharply 
serrated ; glabrous above, glaucous and slightly silky beneath; the 
lower leaves densely silky. Catkins about 3 in. long. Ovary ovate, 
downy, sessile. Style longer than the linear divided stigmas. The 
old leaves appear to be nearly glabrous, and to correspond with the 
figure of S. arbascula in Flor. Lapp., pl. 8. fig.m. (Sal. Wob., p. 275.) 
Brought from Switzerland, by Lord G. W. Russell, in ? 1824; and

strém. (Hooker in Eng. Bot.) The S. chrysénthos Fl. Dan. and the Scottish S. landta appear to 
me widely different in foliage, the Scottish kind having its leaf much more orbicular, and generally 
eaped at the base. (Forbes in Sal. Wob.) Willd. Sp. Pl., 4. p.704., Smith in Rees’s Cycl.,

Spec. Char., §c. Leaves roundish ovate, pointed, entire; shaggy on both 
surfaces; glaucous on the under one. Ovary sessile, oblong, glabrous.

ceolate, longer than the style. Stigmas undivided. (Hooker in Eng. Bot. 
Suppl.) Capsule upon a stalk that is longer than the gland. Stigmas 
entire. (Koch Comm., p.53.) Stamens 3 toa flower ; in some instances 2 ;
