DRYMOCALLIS GLANDULOSA (Lindl.) Rydb. 
Known also as Potentilla glandulosa, this species is rather 
common on hillsides about thickets or overgrown fence rows. 
It has been collected about Los Gatos at elevations of 600 to 
1000 feet, and at 2100 feet at Smith Creek at the foot of Mt. 
Hamilton. 
FRAGARIA CALIFORNICA C. & S. 
Apparently not very common in our region, since I have 
seen but little of it. Specimens were collected in a canyon near 
Lexington, the plants growing on a grassy bank near trees and 
shrubs. 
CERASUS CALIFORNICA Greene 
The wild red cherry is found here and there on the hills at 
elevations of nearly 1000 feet. It is a shrub six or eight feet 
high with slender ascending wand-like branches, the small red 
fruit very bitter. It is commonly known as Cerasus or Prunus 
emarginata, but that is an arborescent species whose home is 
the wet country west of the Cascade mountains in Oregon and 
Washington, and if it may be found in California at all, it will 
be only near the ocean in the extreme northwestern part of the 
State.

Plants referred to this rather common species were collected 
in 1904 in the burnt over area on the ridge southwest of Los 
Gatos. They were much more mat like and spreading than 
usual. Years ago, before having had an oppottunity to see in 
the field so many of the species formerly referred to Hosackia 
and later to Lotus, I expressed the opinion that they do not all
