Nic the numerous useful and interesting objects of al history discovere on the vast extent of the New Continent, none claim our attention ín a higher degree - than the vegetable productions of North America. Her forests produce an endless variety of: useful and stately timber trees; her woods and hedges the most ornamen- tal flowering shrubs, so much admired in our pleasure grounds; and her fields and meadows a number of ex- . eeedingly handsome and singular flowers (many of them i possessing valuable medicinal virtues), different ` from those of othe countries, All these are more or less capa- ble of being adapted to an European climate, and the greater part of easy cultivation and quick growth; which circumstances have given them, with much pro- priety, the first rank in ornamental gardening.

À country so highly abundant in all the objects of my favourite pursuits, excited in me, at an early period of - life, a strong desire to visit it, and to observe in their natural soil and climate the plants which I then knew ; and to make such discoveries as circumstances might throw in my way. This plan I carried into execution in the year 1799; when I left Dresden, the place where. J had received my education, and embarked for Balti-

In 1811, after an absence of nearly twelve years, I returned to Europe, with an ample stock of materials towards a Fron4 or Norra AMERICA, an attempt at which I

now venture to lay before the publie, with the flattering hope, that a generous allowance will be made for its un- avoidable imperfections, when the extent of the under- taking is considered ; and. that it will be accepted asit really is intended, as only the groundwork of some future more: perfect work upon, the Bn SOS

_ Mr. William Bartram, the well known author of Tra- yels through North and South Carolina,” I found a very

intelligent, agreeable, and communicative gentleman ; and from him I received considerable information about the plants of that country, particularly respect- ing the habitats of a number of rare and interesting trees. It is with the liveliest emotions of pleasure I call to mind the happy hours I spent in this worthy man’s company, during the period I jen in his neigh-

Not far from the latter place are also the extensive _ -of William Hamilton, Esq., called the Wood- line which ] found not only rich in plants from all parts of the world, but particularly so in rare and new American species. Philadelphia being a central situa-) tion, and extremely well calculated for the cultivation of- plants from all the other parts of North America, I found. this collection particularly valuable for furnishing me with a general knowledge of the plants of that coun- try, preparatory to more extensive travels into the inte- rior, for the discovery of new and unknown subjects.

A small but highly interesting collec- tion of dried plants was put into my hands by this | meinen n in order to and figure rm I account of his s Travels, artie: dicar: dites ciae in preparing for the press. This valuable work, by the unfortunate and untimely end of its author, has been in- terrupted in its publication ; and ihah General Da- niel Clark, the companion of Mr. Lewis, (to whom I transmitted all the drawings prepared for the work,) un- dertook the editorship after his death, it has. not, to my . knowledge, yet appeared before the publie, notwith- standing the great forwardness the journals and mate- rials’ were. in when: xs "t the Be enean tial them.

when [ eonsider that the small collection communicated

.. to me, consisting of about one hundred and fifty speci-

mens, contained not above a dozen plants well known to me to be natives of North America, the rest being either entirely new or but little known, and among them at least six distinct and new genera. This may give an - idea of the discerning eye of their collector, who had but little practical knowledge of the Flora of North America, as also of the richness of those extensive re- ciate mew.

and handsome foliage, must be highly ornamental : the wood, being excessively hard, is preferred by the natives to any other for making their arrows ; and as it does not spontaneously grow in their neighbourhood, they travel annually to a considerable distance South-west, to pro-

eure it. About the village of the Osage Indians a few _

trees have been planted, from which one has been in- troduced into one of the gardens at St. Louis on the Mississippi. Perfect seeds from the last-mentioned tree were given by Mr. Lewis to Mr. M*Mahon, nursery and seedsman, at Philadelphia, who raised several fine plants from them, and in whose possession. they were when I left America. The other plant alluded to is called by Mr. Lewis A bulbous Rush, which serves the Indians for bread.” Of this: I have only seen the root, whieh is

of a yellowish-brown colour, about the thickness of a fin- ,

ger, and jointed ; on each joint, which are about three

inches asunder, several tubers of about an inch and a

half long are produced, of an oblong ovate shape, ta- pering into a point towards the end; these tubers are filled with an exquisite white and fine farina, resembling starch ; these roots are used in the same manner as those of Dinala esculenta, vid. vol. ii. p.475. I. take this to be a larger species of tuberous Cyperus. | 3 While I was thus engaged in describing id. i figuring those new acquisitions to the American Flora, another opportunity offered to augment my resources, Mr. Aloysius Enslen, who had been sent to America by

Prince Lichtenstein of Austria, as a collector of new

and i interesting subjects of natural history, returned to

Philadelphia from his extensive travels through the

Western Territories and Southern States... This gentle-

mat, with whom I had previously beeri on terms of in- ‘timate friendship, was now in possession of an extreme- ly valuable collection of living and dried plants, to which I had unrestrained access. To his liberality I am in- debted for many new and scarce specimens, which filled üp a desideratum in my collection, particularly in the - plants of Lower Louisiana and Georgia. Those species exclusively received from his collection I have distin- guished by ** v. s. in Herb. Enslen.”

At the same time I had frequent opportunities of seeing the herbarium and collection of living plants of Mr. John Lyon, a gentleman through whose indu and skill more new atid rare American plants have lately been introduced into Europe than through any other channel whatever. Those plants particularly adopted from his collection I have marked with v. s. in Herb, Lyon. P

tremely scarce in America, I determined to publish a Com- pendium of it, executed on the plan of Hoffmann's

Flora Germanica, which work I had no doubt would be

acceptable to the botanist, and particularly so to the cultivator. I communicated my design to Messrs. Brad- ford and Inskeep, booksellers at Philadelphia, who gave

me every encouragement towards the

this publication, I was called upon to take the manage- -

ment of the Botanic Garden at New York, which had been originally established by the arduous zeal and ex- ertions of Dr. David Hosack, Professor of Botany, &e,

as his private property, but has lately been bought by the Government of the State of New York for the publie -

service. As this emplovment opened a further prospect to me of increasing my knowledge of the plants of that country, I willingly dropped the idea of my intended pub- lication for that time, and in 1807 took charge of that establishment. .

and if possible from native specimens, on a plan similar -

to that of Curtis’s Botanical Magazine; for which a

great number of drawings were actually prepared. But

at this period I was attacked by a serious and obstinate intermitting fever, which made a change of air and cli-

mate absolutely necessary to me ; I therefore, in 1810, T

took a voyage to the West Indies, visiting the islands of Barbadoes, Martinique, Dominique, Guadaloupe, and

St. Bartholomew's, from which I returned in the au- tumn of 1811 in a perfect state of recovered health. The vessel in which I returned landed at the town of Wiscasset in the province of Main, This being a coun- try I had never visited before, I examined its vegetation with all possible attention ; and although the season was too far advanced for making any new discoveries, I gained considerable information respecting the geogra- phy of plants, a point I always considered highly in- teresting to the science. During my journey towards New York, I had an opportunity of visiting Professor Peck of Cambridge College near Boston, and seeing his Ț highly interesting collection of plants, collected on a tour to the alpine regions of the White Hills of New - Hampshire. , As the season was too far advanced when Iwas in that country to suffer me to think of ascending

those mountains, this collection. was highly gratifying

to me.

I am also highly indebted to William Roscoe, Esq., who very obligingly communicated to me Mr. Bradbury's Plants collected in Upper Louisiana, This valuable collection contains many rare and new species, having been collected in a tract of country never explored be- fore: those which were entirely new I have described in the Supplement to the present work.

Besides these general collections, there were a num- ber of interesting new plants in the Banksian Herbarium collected by different persons in North America, Among them I found a number of those collected by Archibald Menzies, Esq., during the famous expedition under Vancouver, on the north-west coast of America. As several of them had been described by me from the

Lewisian collection, I requested permission of Mr. Men-

zies to adopt such as were immediately connected, with my plan, which he very obligingly complied with.

The number of American plants in the different nur- series and private collections in the vicinity of London, contributed considerably to my resources, and I am highly indebted to those who gave me their assistance, particularly to Messrs. Lee and Kennedy, whose exten- sive collections exceed any other in Europe. .

The accounts I had frequently heard of the celebrated

- Sherardian Herbarium at Oxford, made me particularly

xviii PREFACE, anxious to examine it. Dr. G. Williams, professor of bo- tany in that University, received me with that kindness so congenial to the true friend of science, and supported my researches to the utmost of his power. Besides the entire Herbarium of Morison, and other valuable collec- tions, I found a general collection of North American. plants, among which I was particularly gratified to find all those sent by Mr. M. Catesby to Dr. Sherard. This collection, though made a century ago, is in very fine preservation, and contains specimens of most of the new species of Walter, Michaux, &c. and even some, entirely new ones, with the remarks and synonyms of Dr. Sherard, and frequently aceompanie "wg : ginal letters of M. Catesby. pinn T also a number of rare specimens collected by a Mr. Tilden at Hudson's Bay, and those of John Eartram and other correspondents of Dr. Sherard. In fine, I consider this thé most complete collection of North American plants now extant. The notes and remarks made here are given in the Appendix and Addenda, as . 3t was not until the body of the work was printed that I had the opportunity of seeing this valuable collection. .

Having thus given a general view of the means and resources I had in composing the present work, I shall only add a few remarks respecting its execution.

On a slight inspection of the work, it will be readily perceived that my chief object has been, throughout, to comprise as much matter as possible in the smallest space which attention to perspicuity would allow. _

In respect to nomenclature I have followed Willde- now's “Species PLANTARUM" and Michaux's Fiona

PREFACE, xix BoRBALI-AMERICANA” as near as possible, avoiding carefully to change old established names, however faulty, unless in cases where good authority furnished a more appropriate one. As for example, I have adopted Fraxinus acuminata of Lamarck, instead of Fraxinus americana, Linn., and Cynoglossum amplexicaule of Michaux for OPtopldium virginicum, Linn. But F have never approved of such changes as Juglans alla and cinerea of Linneus to Juglans squamata and ca- Hee. a, Michaux in tiy iid * Arbres. ner

long established species, and sometimes even without the least hint respecting their names in other authors, "The specific characters in most instances have been mo- ¿lled anew or altered asit was found necessary. Where- ever any alteration had been made it was necessary to quote the author from which the species had been taken

To avoid this superflaous repetition, and save as much room. as possible, I found it expedient to adopt, from page 72 to the end, the following mark (—), to be placed after the specific character whenever it had been amended ; so that Stipa avenacea, page 72, is the same species de- ribed 5 Willd. sp. pl. 1. p. 442, but the character is iugmented.

xx PREFACE,

In some of the more intricate genera, as Monarda; Vaccinium, Andromeda, Salix, &c. the specific charac- ters have been extended to a rather unusual length, which may be objected to by some, but I am persuaded will be approved of by most. The beauty of a short and perspicuous character is without doubt preferable toalong one, which the more it is extended the more ambiguous it will become; but the nature of certain genera will absolutely not admit this conciseness, and the works of some of the most celebrated authors have lately proved that it is inconvenient to be limited by a certain number of words in forming the specific character. Among many others I only need to mention Willdenow's last volume of the Species Plantarum, par- ticularly the genus Aspidium, and Mr. Robert Brown's excellent “Treatise on the Proteacez," in the tenth vo- lume of the Transactions of the Linnean Society. In both these works examples will be found, where the length of the specific character equals if not exceeds in number of words the longest in the present work. :

It would have been needless to encumber the work with a superfluous number of synonyms, which can be - found in the authors referred to ; but those of alate date, or any way illustrative toward the true determination of the species, have been carefully collected, as the means I was possessed of were particularly favourable to the as- certainment of those points, which may be of the high- est utility to future publications on the same subject.

In respect to the figures referred to, care has been taken to quote the most correct whenever there was a choice. The plates which accompany the work have

PREFACE. xxi

been carefully selected, either from highly interesting new plants, or those which will not admit of cultivation, as some of the Rhexias, Lupinus, Gerardia, &c. As the plates were executed during the progress of the work through the press, references to them could not be inserted in the proper places ; but as the plates

themselves refer to the pages of the work, it will be

easy to supply this deficiency, Particular attention has been paid in describing the soil, situation, and range of country each species is

found in, which will be found very useful to the practi-

cal botanist, and especially so to the cultivator of those plants.

After the usual sign of duration, and the time, of flowering, each species has been faithfully marked whether I have seen it myself in a living state (v. v.), or only in a dried specimen (v. s.) ; in the latter case the name of the herbarium I had it from is generally men- tioned. Those I have adopted without seeing them myself in either state, and which ape Yat tey; I have marked (+).

To each species a short pote hen heon lide; respect ing the colour and size of the flower, the habit of the plant, or some other interesting subject illustrative of the species.

Very full descriptions have been given of only so some of the most interesting new species, as the limits of the work would not admit of it in general. The careful

to authors and good figures will amply supply

In the alteration made in the systematie arrangement,

I have been guided by the hints given by the leartted Dr. J. E. Smith, in his excellent Introduction to Bo- tany.” The classes Dodecandria and Polyadelphia are entirely omitted, and their genera inserted in their pro- per places in the other classes.. Asarum next to Aris- tolochia, in Gynandria, Bejaria, Portulacca, Talinum,

Calligonum, and Hypericum, in Polyandria. Hudso- nia next to Helianthemum, with which it is closely related in the same class, Decumaria, Lythrum, Cu- phea, and Agrimonia; in Icosandria. Halesia near Styrax, in Monadelphia. Euphorbia in Diclinia, where it forms; with its other genera, a natural as well as d Ciel order: The pines seme Dicis amens cob dee: The other gencta: of coe Moneecia, Dicecia, and Polygamia, having been re- ferred to their proper classes. The genus Diotis more properly belongs to Tetrandria, but had been omitted in that elass, Najas and Valisneria are genera of an order of this class, to which probably might be added all the Aroidee.

period in a more perfect shape than the limits of this work would admit; it. being absolutely necessary. to illustrate those minute objects with correct figures, with- out which mere words are useless in describing them. _

At the end of the work I have given a Table of Ano- malous Flowers; great pains have been taken to make it as correct as possible, This will be found of infinite service, particularly to the young botanist. For this

. purpose I shall give an example of the use of it. Should ‘the young beginner, unacquainted with the genus Ga- dium, happen to find Galium trifidum, vol. i. p. 103,

he would in vain look for its genus in Triandria; but by referring to this table among the anomalous genera, he will very easily find its proper genus. Again, by ex- amining a flower of Asclepias, he might very probably consider the ten pollen masses for as many anthers, and look for its genus in Decandria, which by the as- sistance of this table he will trace to be Pentandria. _

For the accommodation of the English reader, I have

given a double Latin and English Index. Great atten-

tion has been paid to the correctness of the General Index, in which the first number in parentheses refers to the number of the genus, the other to the page.

"The synonyms are distinguished by being in Italics.

Notwithstanding the unremitting attention paid to

the correctness of this work, the author is well aware

that it will not be found free from those errors which are

“unavoidable in (nay almost inseparable from) publica-

tions of this nature, where so great a number of autho- tities are to be referred to. But he still consoles him- self with the idea of having given to the world a work
