763. HAIRY GOLDEN-ROD

Occasional in swamps and wet places about the lake. 



765. SHOWY OR NOBLE GOLDEN-ROD 



SOLIDAGO SPECIOSA Nutt. 



A common species in dry sandy ground along the road at Long 

 Point and the railroad south of the lake. Peculiar narrow-panicled 

 specimens were found back of Lakeview Hotel. Collected in 

 flower near Chadwick's September 25, 1900. Leaves well up by 

 May 7, 1901. The upright panicle of this species is not so grace- 

 ful as that of the horizontal panicle of many species, but the rich 

 clear yellow of the flowers makes it one of the most handsome and 

 clean-looking of our golden-rods. The upright taper of the panicle 

 reminds one of a torch or flame. 



In flower from August 14 until after September 29. Abundant 

 along the Erie Railroad at Plymouth.

 species. In blossom in late September. 



768. ELM-LEAVED GOLDEN-ROD 



SOLIDAGO ULMIFOLIA Muhl. 



One of the most common species ; very abundant on Long Point, 

 where it grew in the shady woodlands thick enough to give almost 

 a mass effect when in bloom; found also between Kreutzberger's
