Note 3 — BOTANICAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF PEYOTE
Reading edition
“Peyote of Zacatecas, or soft and lanuginous root. The root is of nearly medium size, sending forth no branches nor leaves above ground, but with a certain wooliness adhering to it, on which account it could not be aptly figured by me” (De Historia Plantarum, 3:70; in Safford, An Aztec Narcotic, 295. See also Rouhier, Monographie du Peyotl, 43-44).
