"S. S. 4:151.— A group of hybrids of P. Americana and P. angusti- folia, but occurring in the wild from Maryland and Virginia to Texas. In orchards it is represented by many varieties, of which the Wild Goose is the best known. One branch of the species-group, var. Mlneri, Bailey, is near to P. Americana, and represents the northward extension of the group: it is known by its thicker and duller lvs. which are very veiny below and coarsely toothed and somewhat obovate in outline, and by a late firm fruit. To this form belong the Miner, Langsdon, Clinton, Forest Rose. Another branch of the PRUNUS hortulana group, var. W&ylandi (Fig. 1988), is char- acterized by strong growth, straight dark-colored twigs, broad, heavy, coarsely toothed shining lvs. with 2-G glands on the petioles, late blossoming, and thin-skinned fr. of good flavor. This form is common in the middle South and Texas. It is represented in cultivation by many excellent varieties, as Wayland, Golden Beauty, Moreman, Reed, Garfield, Cumberland and others. This 1985. Leaf of Prunus angustifolia. Natural size. is apparently the "Prunus spec. Texas" described and figured by Dippel in Laubholzkunde, 3, p. 626. Waueh
