Ledum sp. E. B. D. : Ledum is exceedingly common at all places on 

 the coast. L. latifolium is the more abundant southward, L. palustre 

 toward the north. Either the L. palustre is very variable, or an in- 

 termediate species exists along with the latter. In appearance it 

 certainly seems distinct from the other two : its leaves are interme- 

 diate between the oblong leaves of the latifolium and the linear 

 shape of the palustre; its capsule is short-oval; its number of 

 stamens varies within the same cluster of flowers from 5 to 11, 

 mostly from 7 to 9. Its distribution is the same as that of L. palus- 

 tre. This may be the L. palustre var. dilatatum (Wahl) of Macoun 

 (II, 301), having broader leaves and sometimes short oval capsule, ap- 

 proaching L. latifolium; and reported by him only from the Pacific 

 coast.
