| Remarks | [“July 18. . . By the elecampane and he Wheeler house, to my great surprise growing abundantly in the road, the Monarda fistulosa, apparently a week at least, - three or more feet high with a few heads containing a whorl of large, very showy crimson flowers, with crimsoned bracts in whorls beneath, with a balm or summer savory or sweet marjoram fragrance. These things out of the heavenward northwest. Perhaps it is Wood’s variety mollis. It cannot be the didyma, for the corolla is not more than one and three eighths inches long.” Journal 6: 401, 403. 1854]
