lanceolate, inequilateral, the midrib dividing it almost in thirds, the narrower part on upper side. Lower lobe acute, apex acuminate to central apex rounded irregular at base, glabrous, entire Petiolule 1/4 in. long hairy on top. At base free at tip a subulate appendage 3/8 in. long. In sleep the petiole first rotates left and hair backs to upper side (pedicel? narrowest part 1/4 left below). Pod 3 1/2 in long x 1 1/8 x 7/8 wide, flat ribs, stripe dent (not fur). Seeds 4 mm x 3 mm x 2 mm, flat, grooved edge with large delt. spots on each side. Seeds probably transversely to valves as the pod has numerous transverse partitions [See 3-29-27]. Lobes having somewhat hair on mid ribs bent all, edges with narrow translucent edges which are ciliate. 4-29-29 Centaurea Dellericii, Haw- P255 /1st/ season. Db. Rd. but Devils Hole St Marked. Stigma 8-rayed. Petals light yellow. Fz. I collected previously but still common on plants purpled, purple rich crimson very full seeds. 4-30-29 Tamarix gallica, L. No 244 Ft. V fz. just east of Ferry Point. Or for B because ft. buds are ovoid (not sub- globosa) and stamens inserted on brances of angled disk (not flat lobes of disks) thorns T. anglica, Willd. See B.M. G.C.F. 506. Capsule 4 1/2 mm long (ie. almost twice as long as sec. to B.F.) [?] opening by 3 valves. Placentae 3, really parietal tho' at very base of valves. Stamens persistent. Ed specimen from Mrs Day picked elsewhere shows stamens or angled disks. (W.B in neither) these cases are angles very distinct but stamens are not set any little sticks.)
