After two or three trips to the summit, both by the steep trail 
mi 
pes Valley, New York, at 800 feet elevation, which locality 
had been visited the previous week; and many of the plants were

The he st plant to attract my attention was Dalibarda repens, 
the leaf of which is heart-shaped and lies flat against the ground, 
reminding one of a violet. The flowers of Dalibarda as well as 
4 
sta. Ik, Clintonia, and several species of trillium were all in 
“Lily- of- the- valley, long past flowering, grew very large kere 
other ieealnies, large daianeities are shipped to New York every 
winter for the use of florists. 
Of the milkweeds seen, by far the mest al undant was Asclepias 
the trailin a rich, shaded spot, aay the sige reached five feet 
or more in height and were sis greenish blos 
Nearby were donee of the Iso commen res 
aed clump of — ilonthodes looking for all the werld 
like a wild sun-flower t es in diameter. Eupa- 
rier purpureum, a common es a ie meadows, seemed out 
of place in this company and at this elevation.
