Members of the Southern Appalachian Botanical Club, the Torrey Botanical Club, and the Philadelphia Botanical Club met for a joint outing as guests of the Muhlenberg Botanical Club at Lancaster on June 16. The botanists met at The Willows, three miles east of Lancaster on the Lincoln Highway at noon on Thursday the 16th. Under the leadership of Mrs. Charles Y. Tanger and Mrs. William F. Myers, members of the Muhlenberg Club, the party visited the home of (Gotthilf) Henry E. Muhlenberg at No. 33 North Duke Street, andO Trinity Lutheran Church, on the square below, where he was pastor from 1780 until his death in 1815. Later in the afternoon the group visited several stations for interesting plants in the limestone region within a radius of six miles or so about the city in various directions, including a trip to Rohrerstown to see the most massive tree in Pennsylvania, a giant buttonwood (Platanus occidentalis), and stations for, Asplenium Ruta-Muraria, A. ebenoides, Pellaea glabella, P. atropurpurea, Camptosorus rhizophyllus, Quercus Muhlenbergii, Arenaria stricta, Menyanthes trifoliata, Smilacina stellata and others.
