1 This well-known tree bears large heart-shaped leaves, bunches of large white flowers, and seeds in 

 long pendant beans. Though it is not common in Arkansas, it is found abundant enough along the 

 limestone creeks on the western limits of Benton County, where it appears indigenous. Various proper- 

 ties have been ascribed to its bark. But they are not ascertained. The wood is light and durable, 

 resembling the wood of the sycamore. It is not much used. 



2 Flowers used as tea ; emollient in pulmonary diseases.
