A few slender plants were found in rich, low, shaded ground on the 

 right bank of the Guadalupe, at Kerrville. On some of the hilltops it is 

 extremely plentiful, occurring as a low and spreading plant, the small 

 white flowers exhaling a pleasant odor, which is quite marked when one 

 approaches a patch of plants. The odor of the dried plant is very much 

 like that of tincture of valerian.
