EXTRACTS FROM MY NOTE BOOK. 

 /* the Clover Dodder Annual or Perennial?- 

 mring the summer of 1C43 this plant was plentif 



3me of it from a friend, attached to a Petunia 



lay last parasitical, upon one species or other of tl 

 reenhouse plants, but more especially on Pelargoniu 

 riste ; and although during winter it seemed entire 



>rmerly occupied by it without ever sending any radic 

 own to the soil. Although the plants flowered pr 

 lsely, I never could find ripe seeds, and it appeared 

 le that there were perennial buds imbedded in the ster 

 f the plants upon which the Dodder had been par 

 tical, and which, although all vestiges of the plant were 

 one, still broke forth on the return of spring. ""-
