 flora, but its fruit (in August) is redder than I have been ac- 

 customed to in that usually easily identified species. Most 

 of the specimens of Coreopsis Oemleri have very narrow, al- 

 most linear, leaf-segments (var. rigida?) and occasionally (in 

 McDuffie County) the middle segment is divided near the 

 the middle into three, making an opposite extreme from the 

 form in Pickens County above mentioned, and indicating an 

 approach to C. delphinifolia or C. verticillata (neither of which 

 is known in that neighborhood, however). 



Erigeron ramosus, which is an abundant weed in dry old 

 fields in the southeastern states, may have invaded the rock 

 areas only since some of the pine trees were cut out.
