Abstract

The following is a classified list of
plants collected within the limits of the
township of Kettering in the month of
November, 1901. The greater part of the
shrubs and herbs were in flower, and the
collection, although far from complete,
may be regarded as specially representing
the characteristic flora of this beautiful
seaside locality.
It is hoped that the publication of this
list of the characteristic plants of Kettering
will induce lovers of botany elsewhere
to prepare similar lists, and thus extend
our knowledge of the distribution of the
interesting flora of this island.
