Remarks

[May 12. The Salix cordata var. Torreyana is distinguished by its naked ovaries more or less red-brown, with flesh-colored stigmas, with a distinct slender woolly rachis and conspicuous stalks, giving the ament a loose and open appearance. When I consider how many species of willow have been planted along the railroad causeway within ten years, of which no one knows the history, and not one in Concord beside myself can tell the name of one, so that it is quite a discovery to identify a single on in a year, and yet within this period the seeds of all these kinds have been conveyed from some other locality to this” Journal 9: 362-262. 1857]
