" Very prob[ably] a form of R.omiron dirig [?] , but the styles are much more hairy, forming a rounded [?] mass.
In R. omiron [?] types, the styles are less hairy" Dinglar.
I don't understand Dingler's remark about the styles. His own fruits show styles little less hairy than mine: and surely omiron comes in the woolly styled groups.
Filing note:Rosa omissa
