Remarks

[“Sept. 6. At Brattleboro. . . A. M. - Walked down the railroad about a mile, returning partly by river-bank. . . For the first time distinguish the Aster cordifolius, a prevailing one in B. and but just beginning to flower; like an A. undulatus with narrow-winged petioles and sharp-toothed leaves; amid bushes and edges of woods, sometimes four feet high, panicled.” Journal 9: 62-62. 1856]
