The shad-bush buds have expanded into small leaflets already.
This while surveying on the old Colburn farm.
H. D. Thoreau, Journal, November 4, 1854
Shad-bush buds have expanded into small leaflets ... See November 1, 1853 (I notice the shad-bush conspicuously leafing out. Those long, narrow, pointed buds, prepared for next spring, have anticipated their time. I noticed some thing similar when surveying the Hunt wood-lot last winter.)
