Plenty of Azaleas as Grapeland but with no
leaves & in tight bud — evidently quite different to
the canescens complex collected so far. Will try &
return sometime in May when they should be open.
Ran up to the Texas Expr. Sta at Tyler but found it
a small outfit — very diverse & with Yarnell moved to
S.C. Did not stay long. No herbarium — it being at
A & M at Bryant. The rose are all grown by small
farmers in small cultivated lots in otherwise quite
heavily wooded country — again not as expected.
Taking routes 69 & 63 for Zavalia, returned to
Jasper for the night. Good Azaleas & a mass
collection in Angelina & Jasper counties.
