Solidago stricta Ait. Wand-like Goldenrod. 



Solidago stricta Aiton, Hort. Kew III. 216. 1787 [North America]. — Pursh, 

 Fl. Am. Sept. II. 540. 1814. — Britton 133.— Keller and Brown 323. 



Damp, sandy spots in the Pine Barrens, finding here the 

 northern Hmit of its range. 



A species of the east central or most typical portion of the Pine 

 Barrens coming down in some spots, as at West Creek, quite to 

 the edge of the salt marshes. 



Pi. — Mid-August to late September.

 PI. CXXIL, Fig. I. 



Solidago sempervirens Linnaeus, Sp. PL 878. 1753 [New York and Canada]. — 

 Knieskern 18. — Willis 31. — Britton 133. — Keller and Brown 324. 



Common along the salt marshes of the coast and up the Dela- 

 ware, casually to Camden ; also along the tidewater creeks for 

 some miles back into the Pine Barrens. Occasionally intro- 

 duced inland along- railroads. 



This great fleshy-leaved Goldenrod is probably the handsomest 

 species of the genus. It abounds in all sorts of situations along 

 the coast and is one of the most conspicuous of the autumnal 

 flowers. I have found some sprays still in bloom on Thanks- 

 giving Day. 



Pi. — Early September to early October, sporadically later.

 Jnc, Spray Beach (L), Barnegat, West Creek (S), Absecon, Atlantic City, 

 Ocean Citj', Palermo (S), Sea Isle Jnc. (S), Anglesea, Wildwood, Cold

 ant Mills. 



* The record given by Keller and Brown on authority of the late U. C. 

 Smith for Anglesea cannot be verified, and seems extremely imlikely.
