Notes on rose species from the Charlestons. 
All species are Rosa Woodsii Lindl. As defined hy Mrs. Erlanson-^-— 
In the Charlestons there are several forms (Rydherg species) that 
'he differentiated hut how to do this and how much attention should he 
paid to variable characters is a question. I am anxious to come to some 
decision about this as I want to put up one or more of these forms for 
the Exsiccatae Grayanae. Of course any number put out would have to he 
uniform* 
Without authentic specimens and with the variability of some 
characters I 
as follows: 
have with hesitation 
identified the different numbers

551 1 and 5510a differ from R. neomexicana as pedicels are not glabrous 
and sepals are pubescent on back especially when young. With age 
pubescence less on center of back of sepals* Ms±iax£x£Kx±±xKSiixBH±

5510 and 5510a Mature fruit red not purple.

5510 Leaflets not glandular 
5503 and 5511 Some leaflets glandular 
With some of the forms going to R. granuiifera only some of the 
primary leaflets have secondary teeth. 
If several forms are desired I would suggest 7443-7444 , 74^f0-7441, 
5510 and 5510a. I haws re arly enough of the first two*
