fruits/flowers:mature flowers
notes:H. serratifrons, Almq., var. Cinderella, A.Ley. This form was
at first put to H.Ciliatum, Almq., but Mr Ley has recently trans-
ferred it, and described it as a variety of H.serratifrons. See
'J. Bot.' 1907. It has a wide distributiob in Glamorgan apparently
extending in small quantity to the coast near Barry; but it occurs
abundantly in some places on the coal measures and the mountain
limestone, &c., in woods and by stream sides, as well as on dry
hedge banks. The specimens sent (all of which Mr. Ley has seen) were gathered (i) at the end of June 1905 in Mr Ley's company,
along the line of limestone and sandstone hills about Llanishen and
June and July of 1906 in several parts of the Upper Neath Valley.--
