V. agrestis
seeds larger v fewer than in V polita but not ripe v hence not comparable.
lvs fairly dark
Note: color of lvs is just the reverse of all descriptions
Note: BvH &ellIF 265 no fairly good as to calices but poor as to fs. V. polita has lower lobes of corolla about 1/2 the width of upper lobes and hence gives the effect of being distinctly less narrower in proportion than in V. agrestis
V. persica. V. polita has corolla of sharper lobe (less facciplelike fringe) than V. persica.
[4-30-34 Adv. needs comments]
V. polita
style &blue projects above top of fs.
lvs yellowish green
4-4-34 Carex montana L. Cote III 508, [Box] 334, BUNIS SVITF III Fls young fs. Clearer towards Vevey (This plant very common at Glin in fl. since 3-22 at least.) 27 +/- 1/2 cm., naked from well below middle. The uppermost of the nervs 3 cm long reaching to about the middle of the st.
Lvs of sterile alorts reaching to about the same height.
(as in all BvH). Int before flowering loses my black, this all bracts (except those of q spikes) have a def. green band near at base. (Bvn says not). q spikes 10mm long and narrow by oblong (should be sphericoid when ripe &e to Cote and S/IF). Fruit now 3-2 3/4 mm long, green, hairy with very definite purple ring around the clewst scales mouth.
If idealis red. [4-22-34 Adv. fs. q spikes not thickened to ovoide-globular, scales have lost the def. green band.
atriale 4 mm long, exceeding scale b/wn purple at tip where exposed, narrowed at base as due (BvH) But st. still twice as long as lvs.
