Remarks

[“July 31. . .These desmodiums, etc. etc., on the south side of Heywood Peak, a warm dry sprout-land, where I suspect they were not to be found before the wood was cut. They are very forward there.” Journal 5: 350-1. 1853 “Aug. 6. . . Desmodium nudiflorum, some time out at Peak. It is sometimes three feet high!.” Journal 8: 448. 1856]
