Remarks

[“Aug. 7. . . P. M. – With a berry party, ride to Conantum. . . I must contrast the Galium circaezans and pilosum (?) more carefully. Vide if the first ever has purple flowers. The only difference, perhaps, that I yet notice is that the leaves of the latter are scarcely three-nerved and are more rounded or obovate, and it is a later plant.” Journal 8: 449-450. 1856]
