The wide valley about Saugus and to the west is partly cultivated, but in waste places has most of the lower Sonoran weeds of the San Fernando Valley, such as Eremocarpus setigera, Croton californica, Trichostema lanceolata, Marabium vulgare, Opuntia [[space]] (small pods), O. basalaris var., and in washes Baeccaris viminea, Leptospartum squamatum etc. Quercus lobata grows abundantly over low mesas and foothills but does not come onto the valley bottoms or on chaparral covered ridges. Cactus wrens have freshly lived nests in many of the cactus bushes a mile north of Saugus.
Transcription Notes:
Marabium vulgare = Marrubium vulgare
O. basalaris = O. basilaris
Baeccaris viminea = Baccharis viminea
I changed Lepidospartum to Lepto- because I think that's what he wrote, and I see one instance of it spelt that way here: https://www.inaturalist.org/guide_taxa/42019. Also changed 'lined nets' to 'lived nests' because his m and n's are very pointy, and so I think that's middle consontant may be a v. :) - GigglePop
