Excerpt from Torreya, 1910, Vol. 10: A Monthly Journal of Botanical Notes and News In July and August, 1908, it was my privilege to spend a few weeks at the Biltmore Forest School, in the mountains Of North Carolina, by invitation of the Director, Dr. C. A. Schenck. This school is located during the summer months in the Pink Beds, a beautiful valley in the northern corner Of Transylvania County, with its floor elevated about to feet above the sea. The Pisgah Ridge, with its crest varying in altitude from about to feet, forms the northwestern boundary of this valley and the southeastern boundary Of Haywood County. The Pink Beds valley seems to be unique in several respects, and considerably more field work would be necessary before one could do justice to its very interesting vegetation and ecological problems. But the mountains Of Haywood County seem to be thoroughly typical of western North Carolina, and much Of what follows will doubtless apply almost as well to any other county in the neighborhood.
