notes: | S. ferruginea G. Anders. I write the name as above though I do not consider it as a species. I regard it as a form of S. cinerea x viminalis, on account of the very short pubescence (not silky), and the numerous red hairs on the underside of the leaves. Sometimes the under surface is wholly rusty red, as the name implies. Some regard S. ferruginea as synonymous with S. aurita x viminalis, but there are good authorities for both these opinions. - J.
