Celtis Occidentalis. — ^Darlington, Flora Cestrica, p. 180.
Celtis pumila. — ^Pursh, Flor. Bor. Am., i. p. 200 and 201.
This species, nearly allied to C. Occidenialisy is often rather a shrub than a tree. Near Harper's Ferry, in Virginia, on the summits of the neighboring mountains of the Blue Ridge, it flowers at the height of two feet, with low spreading branches.
In other situations it becomes a tree, as in the vicinity of Bethle- hem, in Pennsylvania, and other places in that State. It
... is best distinguished by its broad, rather short, and smooth leaves when adult, and which are not scabrous on the upper surface : the mar- gin is now and then without serratures; their form is cordate- ovate, very little acuminated. The berries are solitary, brown, and glaucous. It is, perhaps, little more than a variety of G.
Occidentalis.
