the Thoreau Log.
13 August 1856. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  P. M.—To Conantum.

  Beck says of the small circwa (C. alpina), “Many botanists consider this a mere variety of the preceding.” I am not sure but it is more deeply toothed than the large. Its leaves are of the same color with those of the large at Bittern Cliff, but more decidedly toothed . . .
