dual known, which grows on the plantation of the ! 
Messrs. Bartraras near Philadelphia. It probably is 
only a hybrid plant on that account, and cannot with 
propriety be considered a genuine species : but the ;j 
younger Michaux having given a good figure of it, I ' 
insert it here on that account only. ,

The IVater Oak is about forty feet high when full | 
grown ; its wood is but little valued. Its leaves vary, 1

scarcely one tree found having leaves like the other, | 
and the same tree is almost as variable in its different 
branches.

is probably nothing more than a young plant of Q.
