Over to other side of Hemp Creek, past falls, down to river bottom, then back. What a lovely walk!
Starting to flower.
| GEN | 10 small petals, many stamens, superior ov with 1 chamb (though scored to look 2-chambered), many ovules, two-part sess stigma, dense white term raceme |
Full glorious bloom all over, esp top of phyllite (phyllinite?)slopes above Hemp Creek canyon. Going on Curtis's suggestion since I haven't picked one yet.

Full bloom all over.
Now in bloom all over damp areas.
Fully leafed out, flowers still in full force.
First one I saw in bloom.

Just starting to come into full bloom along river.
Full bloom all over dry areas esp grassy southern hills and bluffs.
A couple.
| GEN | softer, yellower, farinaceous taste, smaller, better ring |
The usual brown jobby, always in groups of several, on hardwood.
Often crowded, on mossy rotten log, rarely fresh.
Never very many, though occasionally 6-12, always on wet very mossy rotten log.
Rather old, so didn't collect it.
| GEN | small, pale buff, umbo, bell, several in loose group in sand by trail |
