Excerpt from Plant??? Bakerian???, Vol. 2: Fascicle I.; Fungi to Gramine??? On April 10 the second camp was made on the banks of the San Juan River, just below the town of Aztec, New Mexico, at an altitude of about feet. This region is characterized by sand hills and gravelly mesas, sparingly covered with pifion pine and cedars, the whole very, very dry. The hills along the extreme southern border of Colo rado do not differ essentially in many places from the Aztec hills, and the distance is not great. Undoubtedly most of the plants found at Aztec will also be found in Colorado. Many things were coming into bloom when camp was made at Aztec. During the month it was found that a very re markable and evanescent flora existed among these hills. This flora appears during the very earliest warm days of spring. The plants arise from perennial bases, flower and fruit very rapidly, and have passed before hardly any of the plants usually considered so characteristic of the region are in their prime. Of most things, specimens were few and scattering. Miles and miles of the interminable pifion bills were tramped over to secure enough for issuance. On many of the days, the cold northwest winds were extremely bitter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
