Vaccinium vacillans Kalm. Low Blueberry. 



Along southside of the lake, one hundred yards above Prest- 

 wood's Bridge. Frequent. 



Vaccinium fuscatum Ait. Black High-bush Huckleberry. 



Flat woods on Lydia Road. Margin of Burnt Bay. This species 

 seems to have been overlooked by our South Carolina botanists. 

 It may easily be distinguished from the following species by 

 the pubescent twigs and leaves, the much smaller flowers and 

 the shiny-black, smaller berries that ripen earlier. 



Vaccinium corymbosum L. Blue High-bush Huckleberry. 



Common in flats and bays. The berries of this species are 

 larger than that of V. fuscatum and ripen about ten days later. 



Vaccinium crassifolium Andr. Trailing Huckleberry. 



Southside of Black Creek below the paper mill. Sugarloaf 

 Mountain. Back of the old Norwood Place. A rare and inter- 

 esting shrub, with thick, box-like, evergreen leaves and pro- 

 cumbent branches that trail like vines. 



Diapensiaceae 

 Galax aphylla L. Coltsfoot. 



Bluffs of Black Creek, one mile above Hartsville, and at Laurel 

 Land. Rare.
