| ocrnotes: | "Mr. Painter's plant from Biddulph is an intermediate between brachycarpa and bifida, with a slight tendency towards rubellaeformis. All these mixed forms seem to be common everywhere. The types are less common, though abundant in some spots. A typical specimen should not bear capsules of more than one form on the same root, and should have the root leaves well developed."--F. T. Mott. |
