Frequent on rocky banks throughout the northern counties 

 and southward locally through the Middle and Coast districts 

 to the Cape May peninsula. 



The Columbine in our region, failing to find its accustoniicd 

 rocky banks, often grows out in flat sandy ground, especially 

 on the coast islands, and becomes a larger, much more robust 

 plant, sometimes three feet in height; quite different in appear- 

 ance from the delicate plant of the northern counties. 



At Sea Bright (Britton) and Cold Spring (O.H.B.) a form 

 with pure yellow flowers occurs. 



Fl. — La.te April to^ early June. Fr. — Early June to mid-July.
