PREFACE.

The Flora of Fitchburg is the work of students
of the Fitchburg High School, and represents about
seven years of diligent research. The interest in the
science of botany, has however been accelerated by
the elYorts of a few, especially enthusiastic pupils, and
has at last culminated in the publication of this cata-
logue.

Fitchburg, situated in the northeastern part of Wor-
cester county, is about six and one-half miles long
and four and one-half miles wide ; it contains ac-
cording to actual survey 17,879 acres. Its surface is
exceedingly uneven and the small area of level land
lies along the larger water courses. It has an eleva-
tion of from six hundred to one thousand feet about
the sea level.

There have been included in this catalogue, many
plants that do not appear within the limits of our
city, but which are found in the adjoining towns. In
all such cases the names of the towns in which the
specimens were found have been appended. It is
thought that by these additions the range of the pam-
phlet's usefulness will be somewhat increased.

We cannot claim infallibility for our work ; but
we deem it exhaustive and reliable up to the limit of
present botanical research in the area which it covers.
If any omission or error has been made, we shall
gladly welcome additions to our stock of information.

The number of specimens contained in our cata-
logue is eight hundred and sixteen, of which six hun-
dred and twenty-five are found within the limits of
our city.

iv PEEFACE.

Unfortunately our city contains no natural ponds
or' large swamps. Accordingly the white water lily
(N3'mph«a odorata) ; the bladderworts ( Lentibula-
cae) , and several other water plants are wanting and
are assigned to the locality nearest Fitchburg.

Several specimens which differ in a very marked
degree from the described specimens in Gray's Bot-
any and also in Wood's have been described in our
catalogue.

Gray's Manual of Botany of the Northern States,
edition of 1875, has been used as a guide, and the
Flora of Worcester Count}^ has served as a model for
our own book and has proved a valuable help as well
as a stimulus in our work.

We have been aided in our effort by Capt. V. P.
Parkhurst of Templeton, and to him as well as to all
others who have shown an interest in our work we
extend our sincere thanks, and hope that this humble
effort may in some degree repay them for their kind-
ness.

Our little work we humbly dedicate to the schools

of our honored commonwealth, and we sincerely

hope that it may awaken interest in other schools

and prompt them to examine more closely the beauties

sequestered in vale and meadow, on hill-side and moun-
tain.

Flower in the crannied wall,

I pluck you out of the crannies ; —
Hold you here, root and all, in my hand,

Little flower — but if I could understand
What you are, root and all, and all in all,

I should know what God and man is. — Tennyson.
