Narrative
Full name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Halesia carolina. Large grove of apparently reproducing, healthy Halesia seen in flower during spring 2019 and mapped in fall 2019 just inside the woods' edge along the southwest corner of Mt. Hamilton; at least 30 individuals are present. Joan Feely believes these were probably planted by Edward ("Ned") Garvey in the early 1990s when he was in charge of this area, and may be from his or one or more of a variety of collections of seed obtained from this species around that time. Germination studies on the species were performed and then published by G. R. (Randy) Johnson around that same time, and either seedlings or seed may have been mass-planted on this part of the grounds, but was not documented. Form received: unknown propagule type.
