dry soil, common ; and according to Dr.Gray, it is common in dry soil or along the borders of swamps;while Torrey and Grays Flora of North America locates it in dr) places in the margins of swamps, Newfoundland, andNew England States to Georgia. So far as we can ascertain, itis most common in the Seaboard States, and is rather abundantthrough Ohio and Michigan to Nebraska, in the western partof which state it gradually disappears. It has quite recentlybeen found in Iowa, by Messrs. Coleman and Burgess, but onlyin very few locations, while in Kansas it has not yet been foundat all. How far it extends south along the eastern shore of theMississippi, it is scarcely possible to say, owing to the uncer-tainty in the application of synonyms. In Northern Texas ithas recently been collected by Mr. Ruffner. We have adopted the common name, Dwarf Wild Rose,given by Dr. Gray, as it seems to be the most appropriate,although our flower is also known as the Shining Rose, orsimply as the Wild Rose.
