The only specimen of this in the Collection, is in exactly the same state as that which was received 
from Mr. Douglas, and described in the Flora Boreali- Americana, that is, destitute of flower and fruit: 
we are therefore unable to add anything to the very unsatisfactory account there given of this highly curious 
shrub. 
1. Ceanothus thxjrsifiora; caule erecto stricto ramisque angulatis, foliis breviter petiolatis 
oblongis triplinerviis glanduloso-serratis glabris subtus nervis venisque appresso-pilosis,

1826,” et in Lixincea, v. p. 149. Hook. FI. Bor. Am. v. 1. p. 125. 
The specimens of this exhibit, what Eschscholtz has correctly noticed, that the calyx is blue, and the 
petals white.
