Wooded swamps Oif the Pine Barren and Cape 'May regions 

 rather local. 



This is a distinctively Pine Barren species, and its long, thick, 

 glossy leaves hanging in festoons froim the trees and bushes on 

 the edge of the deep swamps at once attract attention as being 

 strikingly different from anything we are familiar with in 

 other parts oi the State. In winter it is still more conspicuous, 

 owing to the evergreen character oif the leaves.
