          It strikes me as a
 well marked variety
 of S. cordata if nothing
 more -- a form deserving
 recognition and the
 preservation of its
 original name.


 Anderson completely
 ignores S. torreyana [Salix torreyana]
 yet his S. cordata [Salix cordata] is [?] a 
 "4 [degree] Invifolia foliis basi
 latissimis [vix?] 2 pollices
 longis subtens valde intense
 glaucis [is?] S. lucida simillimis
 D. C. p 252 is I think the
 source.


 In some willows
 which I am distributing
 I desire to retain the
 name of Torreyana
