Spring is the best time to plant them out, as the frost and worms are apt to throw them out of the ground in winter, if planted out in autumn. (Bot. Cult. 278.) 1017. Enkianthus. From εγκuoς, a pregnant woman, a name given to the plant by Loureiro, because the great colored buds appear as if pregnant with the flowers which afterwards appear. This beautiful genus, as Sweet observes, has generally been considered difficult to propagate: the difficulty is now removed, as ripened cuttings root readily planted in pots of sand, and placed under a hand-glass, without bottom heat. The best soil for it is an equal mixture of sandy loam and peat, and care must be taken not to overwater it when not in a growing state when it gets pretty large it is one of the most ornamental plants for the greenhouse or conservatory. (Bot. Cult. 186.) There are several species confounded under the common name Enkianthus quinqueflora. 1018. Gaultheria. Named after one Gaulthier, a French physician at Quebec. A small evergreen plant, cultivated in the American border for the sake of its ornamental bright scarlet berries. The species may be increased by dividing at the root, by suckers, layers, or from seeds. 1019. Arbutus. An ancient name of this plant, said to be traceable to the Celtic ar boise, austere bush, in allusion to the roughness of the fruit. In like manner Unedo is said by Pliny to have been so called from unum edo, I eat one, because, being found disagreeable, no one could eat a second. L'Arbousier, Fr., Landbeere, ORDER I.

Ger., and Arbuto, Ital. This genus includes one of the most elegant of hardy shrubs, the A. unedo. This evergreen is peculiarly beautiful in October and November, covered at once with blossoms and ripe fruits. It is a native of the south of Europe, and is found also near Killarney in Ireland, where it has probably been brought from Spain or Italy at an early period by the priests. It grows there on limestone rocks, in greater luxuriance than it is often to be met with in the woods of Italy: in both countries the fruit is eaten; and in Spain both a sugar and spirit is extracted from it.
A. uva ursi, La Busserole, Fr., Barrenbeere, Ger., and Uva d'orzo, Ital., is abundant in many parts of the continent, especially the alpine regions. It dyes an ash color; tans leather; the berries are food for grouse and other game, and the leaves are used in medicine. The fresh leaves are inodorous, and have a slightly bitter astringent taste, leaving a sweet sensation in the mouth. When properly dried and powdered, they acquire an odour similar to that of hyson tea; but the taste remains the same, the degree of bitterness only being increased. (Thomson's London Dispensatory, 163.) It is used sometimes in calculous complaints and ulcerations of the urinary organs. The dwarf species of this genus and those of Rhododendron and Andromeda, are very fit plants for rock work. A. alpina thrives best in peat kept moist and shaded. All the species may be increased by seeds, or by budding and inarching on each other: the dwarf kinds root readily by layers. The Uva ursi has been brought into notice in modern times as an efficient remedy in nephritic and even in calculous cases. European practitioners have doubted its powers, but it has found many supporters of respecor or 4 au.o or ..or or 2 au.o Privet-like WINTER-GREEN. round-leaved cu cu 1020. CLE'THRA.
