358. ANDROMEDA, Linn. (ANDROMEDA.) 



(1383.) A. polifolia, Linn. 



A. rosmarinifolia, Pursh. Fl. L, 291. Narrow-leaved form. 



Peat bous, swamps, borders of marshes and ponds from the Atlantic 

 to the Pacific, and northward to the Arctic Sea. This species, although, 

 so widely distributed retains its form without variation in all latitudes. 

 Young and late shoots have wider leaves than the normal form but 

 that is all. Greenland. (Hook. Arct. PI.*) 



(1384.) A. ligustrina, Muhl. 



A. paniculata, Ait. Michx. Fl. I., 254. 



Canada. (Pursh.*) Saskatchewan. (Drummond.*) Wet grounds, 

 Canada. (Gray.*) I believe all the above references are based upon a 

 misconception. Drummond's plant must have been the leaves of 

 Gaylussacia resinosa; Pursh is unreliable ; and Dr. Gray probably 

 follows the statements of his predecessors.
