With us, the stamens of this willow are combined, proving it to be distinct from Salix Weigelliana, of Willdenow, its germens are also downy as Smith correctly described them.— See Hook. Eng. Fl. p. 430.

This little willow is well figured in the English Botany, it is a dwarf, but upright shrub, with nearly smooth leaves. Having never seen female catkins, I will not take upon me to say that it may not be one of the endless varieties of Salix repens.
18. S. rosmarinifolia. Rosemary-leaved Willow.
Sm. Eng. Fl. iv. 214; Eng. Bot. 1365; With. ii. 82.

α In woods and hedges, common; β generally on the banks of rivers, γ on the banks of Irthing near Gilsland, N. In hedges about two miles north of Chester-le-Street, D. In Allerton Mil! Dene and other places near Berwick — Dr. G. Johnston. Through the medium of specimens communicated to me long ago by Mr. E. Forster and Mr. D. Turner, I am acquainted with the three preceding varieties of this willow, considered by Smith as three species. The fructifications of all, are alike, the leaves of α are broader than those of β, which is the only difference between them, but γ has rather a better right to be considered distinct. It is a low
growing tree, with leaves much smaller than the first and second varieties. At the foot of Derwentwater, Cumberland, it is abundant.
