30_78 Near S. base Ord Mt. - Krameria parvifolia Benth. a comparatively rare plant as compared with individulas of other spp. But common about Ord. ie. relatively to its occurrence in other areas so far as I have noted. Still it is in full & heavy flower which render it comspicuous. - Salazaria mexicana common about Ord Mt. - Encelia, no , in washes about Ord Mt. No. 5935. Thamnosma montanum Torr. &Frem. Rather common about the south and west base of Ord Mt. fruiting very heavily this year. Smith says this is used in preference to Ephedra as a specific. Bot. Cal. says "rather rare" but it is not in the Ord region. Heavy turpentine odor. |
30_79 11 May 1914 - Dry lake just south of pass over west end of Ord Mt. Atriplex canescens, filling a great deal of the lower part of flat, most of it dead or nearly so and looking very blue at a distance. - Stanleya pinnata Nutt. no. 5937 filling an area of the flat five acres with color. Very handsome round many-stemmed plants, finest I ever saw, 4 to 6 ft. high. Noon stop: Lulu ate greedily a bush of Franseria dumosa cropping it down to the woody base. Judy ate Amsinckia no. 5834, Devils Lettuce as eagerly. - But it soon developed that Lulu was hungry. See p. 81 - Rodman Mt., black & desolate, looms [bulkily] just directly east of the noon stop in dry lake flat. |
