This plant is certainly very variable in leaf. The 

 ordinary form has broad lobes, 4 inches long and 1 to li 

 inch wide, ovate or triangular, occasionally nearly entire. 

 This variety however has extraordinarily narrow lobes 

 and seems peculiar to this region, fori have not seen 

 the typical form from here.
