DURATION OF LEAVES IN EVERGREENS
While the duration of leaves in evergreens is not at all a new subject, very little systematic work seems to have been done toward determining durations for an extended list of evergreen species. This work was begun for the purpose of determining the leaf duration of the evergreen species of trees and shrubs in western Washington.
