BILTMOKE BOTANICAL STUDIES 



Prunus injucunda Small. Bull. Torr. Bot. Club, 25 : 149, 1898. 



Collected quite frequently. A few points I note are as fol- 

 lows : Meriwether, Cobb, Gwinnett, Jackson and Bibb coun- 

 ties, Georgia, and at Trenton, South Carolina. At Warm Springs, 

 Georgia, a sport with double flowers' was frequently observed 

 growing with the normal form. 



Zenobia pulverulenta (Willd.) Pollard. Bull. Torr. Bot. Club, 

 22 :232, 1895. 



I found a small patch of this beautiful shrub in full bloom 

 June 2, 1901, in the pine barrens near Florence, South Carolina. 

 I also made collections in Robeson and Moore counties, North 

 Carolina, where it is rather more common, at least at some points, 

 than is Z. cassinefolia (Vent.) Pollard, 79 with which it was for 

 years confused or at most considered" only varietally distinct. The 

 delicately shaded bluish-gray foliage and large campanulate flow- 

 ers present characters which should place this species among 

 garden shrubs, wherever it will prove hardy. 



Trachelospermum difforme (Walt.) A. Gray. Syn. Flora 2: 

 part 1, 85, 1878. 

 An abundance of this peculiar woody vine was found in a 

 swamp along the Black river near Kingstree, South Carolina, in 

 full flower May 31, 1901. 



Philadelphia hirsutus Nutt. Gen Am. 1 : 301, 1818. 



My first collections of this species in Georgia were made in 

 1899 on the cliffs of the Coosa river at Rome, and also in June of 

 the same year on the rocky slopes of Kennesaw Mountain. It is 

 also frequent in moist soil along the brow of the precipitous rocks 

 on the west side of Lookout Mountain, near Chattanooga, Ten- 

 nessee. 



Hypericum dolabriforme Vent. Hort. Cels. pi. 45, 1800. 



My first collection of this species was made in Chickamauga 

 Park, Dade county, Georgia, in July, 1899. It was common over 

 quite an area of thin limestone soil. 



™ Bull. Torr. Bot. Club 22 : 231, 1895.
