% 211, S. REcURVA‘TA Pursh.. The recurved-cathined Willow. 
Identification. Pursh Fl. Amer. Sept., 2. p. 609. ; Smith in Rees’s Cyclo., No. 99. 
The Sexes. The female is noticed in the Specific Character. 
Spec. Char., §c. Leaves obovate-lanceolate, acute, glabrous, entire ; glandular at the margin, glau- 
cous beneath ; the young ones silky. Stipules none. Catkins protruded before the leaves, re- 
curved. Ovary ovate, somewhat stalked, the length of the hairs of the bracteas. Style very short. 
Stigmas divided. Wild in shady woods in North America, among the mountains of New Jersey 
and Pennsylvania; flowering in April. A low shrub. Branches brown, glabrous. Buds yellow. 
Bracteas tipped with black. (Pursh and Smith.) Introduced in 1811. According to Pursh (p. 612.), 
it bears considerable resemblance to S. rosmarinifolia. 
% 212. S. saLvizFo'Lia Link. The Sage-leaved Willow. 
Identification. Adopted from Link in Willd Sp. Pl., 4. p.688.; Smith in Rees’s Cyclo., No, 87.5; 
Koch Comm., p. 34. 
Synonymes. SS. patula Seringe Sal. Helv., p. 11., Spreng. Syst., Sweet Hort. Brit.; S. oleifdlia Ser.

| S. Fluggedna Willd. Sp. PL., 4. p. 709., according to a specimen from Flugge himself in the her- 
barium of Mertens, Smith in Rees’s Cyclo., No. 139. 
The Sexes. The female is described in the Specific Character, and in Willdenow’s descriptionof S. 
Fluggedna. 
Spec. Char., §c. Leaves oblong-lanceolate, acute, tapered to the base, obsoletely denticulated, 
hoary and tomentose, and wrinkled with veins on the under surface ; lower ones obtuse. Stipules 
half-heart-shaped, acute. Catkins sessile, arched, attended by some scale-shaped leaves at the 
base. Capsule ovate-lanceolate, tomentose, stalked ; the stalk as long again as the gland. Style 
short. Stigmas oblong, nearly entire. (Koch.) Wild in Portugal, the south of France, and Swit- 
zerland. In Dauphiné, Villars says that it serves as a stock on which to graft S. vitellina. Smith 
mentions that the trunk is about 10 ft. or 12 ft. high ; the leaves about 12 in. or 2in. long, and some- 
what revolute ; and the branches dark brown, hairy when young, and very brittle. Smith describes 
S. salviefolia and S. Fluggedna as distinct species ; but it does not appear that he had seen speci- 
mens of either. S. Fluggedna Willd. is stated in the Hortus Britannicus to be a native of the south 
of France, and introduced in 1820.

ee 4 Willd. Sp. Pl., 4 p.695.; Smith in Rees’s Cyclo., No.104.; Koch incidentally in 
Comm., p. 46. ; 
Synonymes. S. discolor Schrad. Hort. Gott. MSS., as quoted by Willd. It is noticed by Koch (Com., 
p. 46.), as a variety of a kind that is cultivated, in most German gardens, under the erroneous name 
of S. bicolor Ehrhart. 
Spec. Char., &c. Leaves elliptical, acute ; finely downy on both surfaces, glaucous on the under one; 
slightly serrated towards the point. Stipules very small. Catkins protruded rather earlier than. 
the leaves, ovate, hairy. (Smth.) It approaches, in habit and size of leaves, S. Crowedza and S. 
bicolor ; but the foliage is always more or less clothed on both surfaces with silky hairs ; and the 
two stamens are distinct. ‘The footstalks are slender, elongated, sometimes having two minute 
rounded stipules at the base, or, in their stead, a pair of glands. (d.) Introduced in 1820. 
% 214. S. sEPTENTRIONA‘LIS Host. The northern Willow. 
Identification. Lodd. Cat., ed. 1836. 
Description, §c. From the plants in the Hackney arboretum, this kind appears to belong to the 
group Cinéree. Mr. Borrer had cuttings of S. nigricans Smith, from Messrs, Loddiges, under the 
name of S, septentrionalis.
