Dear Rich
This one is from the Flora of N. America - also published by Harvard
University and available online. As Harvard publish the flora, plus as time
permits, they will be referenced in the database. I do not, however, feel
that descriptions such as these are of much benefit to the average person,
the language is too technical. It is better to have the reference in the
database so that those who do require this information can source it. There
is a specific field in the database, called botanical references, which
lists sources of botanical descriptions.
Love
Ken
