ones which were partly fertile.  The ends of the fronds are still coiled
and apparently are the same size as when seen on our last trip.  On our
way we found Kalmia angustifolia and also Kalmia latifolia in bloom.  A
Gleditschia triacanthos was observed in full bloom and I noticed that the
first five or six leaves are always only pinnate, whereas the later ones

Sometimes the entire inflorescence was in that condition, othertimes only one
or two flowers.  The flowers in this condition were several times larger
than the ripe fruit of this plant and were covered with a white bloom.
All parts of the flower were equally swollen. [sketch of flower with labels: pistil, stamen, corolla, calyx, ovary, peduncle] A cross-section
