In the West Indies it is esteemed very wholesome and nourishing. Here it grows well in loam and peat, and ripened cuttings with all their leaves on root best in sand under a hand-glass. 886. Metaiba. The vernacular name of the plant in French Guiana. Large cuttings root best under a hand-glass in sand. 887. Kölreuteria. So named by Laxmann, in honor of Joseph Gottlieb Kölreuter, who published De plantis quibusdam Rarioribus, Tubing, 1755, with a dissertation De Insectis Coleopteris. He also made many experiments on the pollen of flowers, hybrid plants, &c. published in the Petersburgh Transactions. This shrub should be planted in as sheltered a situation as possible, as it will not flower if too much exposed; and if the wood is not well ripened, the tops of the shoots will be injured by the frost. 888. Guarea. The natives of Cuba call the plant Guara. This tree, though it has an inconspicuous flower, yet has fine large leaves. All parts of the plant, especially the bark, smell strong of musk, and may be used instead of that perfume for many purposes. The wood is full of a bitter resinous substance, which renders it unfit for rum-hogsheads, being observed to communicate both its smell and taste to all spirituous liquors: but it is often cut for staves and heading, when there is a scarcity of other timber. The powder of the bark is said to be a good emetic; and is sometimes used among the negroes for that purpose. Ripened cuttings root in sand under a hand-glass. 889. Amyris. Derived from μuῤρa, myrrh. Its resinous gum has an excellent perfume. Almost every species of this genus produces some valuable gum or resin. A. gileadensis produces the celebrated balm of balm of Gilead. It is a shrub with purplish branches, striated a little, with crowded ternate leaves, and protuberant buds loaded with balsamic resin.

A. Opobalsamum produces the balsam of Mecca. It has pinnate leaves, with sessile leaflets. It grows near Bederhunin, a village between Mecca and Medina, in a sandy rocky soil, confined to a small tract about a mile in length, and attains the height of fifteen feet. The balsam is obtained by incision. Neither of these species are yet introduced to Britain: those we possess grow in loam and peat, and cuttings root freely in a pot of sand under a hand-glass. 890. Ximenia. Francis Ximenes was a Spanish naturalist from whom we have, published in 1615, four works upon the plants and animals useful in medicine in New Spain. The flowers of this tree have an odor like frankincense: the fruit is yellow, shiny, the size of a pigeon's egg, with a thin rind and sweet subacid pulp: it is eaten by negroes and children in the West Indies. Cuttings root in sand under a hand-glass. 891. Bæckia. From Abraham Bæck, who was physician in ordinary to the king of Sweden, and who communicated plants to Linnæus, by whom the genus was dedicated. These plants are of free growth in sandy loam and peat, and so hardy as to require little more than protection from frost during winter. Young cuttings root in sand under a bell-glass. 892. Erica. From ερiκω, to break, in allusion to the brittle branches of the plant. It was also reputed a specific for breaking the stone in the bladder. La bruyère, Fr., Heide, Ger., Erica, Ital., and Brezo, Span. Ling or common heath abounds in barren wastes in every part of Europe, and especially in the northern countries. Though little regarded in warm climates, the different species of native Erica are made subservient to a great variety of purposes in the bleak and barren highlands of Scotland, and other northern countries. The poorer inhabitants cover their cabins with them instead of thatch, or else twist them into ropes, and bind down the thatch with them in a kind of lattice work. They also make the walls with alternate layers of heath, and a sort of cement made of black earth and straw.

In most of the western isles they dye their yarn of a yellow color, by boiling it in water with the green tops and flowers of this plant; and woollen cloth boiled in alum water, and afterwards in a strong decoction of the tops, comes out a fine orange color. In some of these islands they tan their leather in a strong decoction of it. Formerly the young tops are said to have been used alone to brew a kind of ale; and Boethius relates that this liquor was much used by the Picts. In some of the isles it is said they still brew ale with one part malt, and two parts of the young tops of heath, sometimes adding hops. In many parts of Great Britain besoms are made of it. The turf, with the heath growing on it, is cut up and dried for the fuel of the cottager, for heating ovens, covering under-ground drains, &c. Sheep and goats will sometimes eat the tender shoots, but they are not fond of them. Cattle not accustomed to browse on heath give bloody ORDER I.

The branches of heath afford shelter, and the seeds a principal part of their food to many birds, especially those of the grouse kind: and for this purpose the seedvessel is formed and protected in such a manner, that the seeds are preserved a whole year, or even longer. Bees collect largely from the flowers, and honey made from them was anciently supposed to be of a bad quality, but in fact it is only of a darker color. The foliage affords nourishment to the Phalæna quercus or great egger moth. Dodder frequently entwines itself about this plant, and gives it a singular appearance. Till the latter end of the last century, this genus consisted of three or four humble British shrubs, and the heath of Spain (E. mediterranea), a slow growing tree. But when the Cape of Good Hope fell into the hands of the British, collectors were sent out, and soon brought to light some hundreds of species. It may serve as X 2 OCTANDRIA MONOGYNIA.

Their beauty needs no encomium; many are pretty, some are graceful or elegant, a few splendid, and there are curious, grotesque, and odoriferous species. Their culture and propagation propagat is one of the most delicate branches of the art of gardening: it may be said to have been invented in England, and in the Hammersmith nursery, and places Britain far before all countries in this art as in so many others.

Earth of peat is obtained by collecting peats from bogs or turf from the surface of peaty wastes and moist places, and laying the peats or turves in a heap to rot and moulder into earth. This they will require several years to do; but in the meanwhile a portion of mould may be obtained whenever it is wanted, by turning the turves and sifting the fragments. Sometimes this peat is found without any mixture of sand; at other times, where streams have run into the bog or lake while the peat was forming, it is mixed with fine sand that had been held suspended in the water. This last is the best sort of peat for the Erica family; and therefore where peat is not sandy naturally, fine white sand X 3 Arbutus-flower.or conquering phylica-like incurved slender-leaved Thunberg's Yew-leaved Rosemary-leav. imbricated woolly-flower'd Brunia-like 5241 flagelláris Lk. 5242 bracteata Thunb. 5243 túrgida Lk. 5244 lachneæfólia Andr. 5245 nigríta L. 5246 báccans L. 5247 fúgax Salisb. 5248 triúmphans Lodd. 5249 phylicoídes W. 5250 incúrva Wendl. 5251 tenuifólia L. 5252 Thunbérgia W. 5253 taxifólia H.

This sand admits the water to penetrate into the soil and reach the roots of the plant, and also to drain away from the roots so as not to rot them. Pots filled with pure peat-earth are apt to be either hard, dry, and impenetrable to water, or otherwise as wet as a saturated sponge. The free growing kinds (according to Sweet) thrive best in good black peat, and like largish pots to grow in. The dwarf and hard-wooded kinds like a very sandy peat, and smaller pot, well drained with broken potsherds and rough bits of turfy peat; they also require less water than the free growing kinds, as they grow chiefly at the Cape on the tops and sides of mountains, and in the crevices of rocks, &c. chiefly in very sandy soil, and but little of it.

The climate for the heaths is not required to be warm during winter; if the frost is excluded, that will be enough. Some species, as the E. persoluta for example, will even bear to have the ground about their roots frozen without injury, provided it is not thawed in the sun, or too suddenly, or in a very warm temperature.

In general the heaths may be kept in the coldest part of the greenhouse, and those not in flower in pits, well covered at night with mats or prepared coverings of reeds or straw. Too much fire-heat in winter will hurt them as much as any thing, as they only require to be kept from frost: most of the kinds might be preserved through the winter in frames: the only difficulty is to keep the damp from them. Heaths require a great deal of air and light, and therefore should be placed near the glass and near such X 4 OCTANDRIA MONOGYNIA.

They require also very regular supplies of water; not much at a time, but so frequently that the earth may never get dry or the plant droop. Many kinds of plants, if they have suffered for want of water, may be recovered by an abundant supply, and placing them under a bell-glass on a little heat; but if once the roots of a heath are them under a bell-glass on a little heat; but if once the roots of a heath are thoroughly dried, no art of the gardener will recover the plant. This is the true reason why so many heaths are destroyed when introduced as chamber plants, and also by gardeners who are ignorant of their nature.

Heaths are propagated by cuttings, seeds, and a few by layers. In propagating by cuttings, the tender tops are taken at whatever season of the year they begin to grow, which with most sorts is about the month of taken at whatever season of the year they begin to grow, which with most sorts is about the month of June .

The strong growing kinds require the cuttings to be rather larger than the others, and some of the stunted growing kinds should be kept in the hot-house a little while when they begin to grow, to draw them to a sufficient length of young wood, or cuttings cannot be procured. Then take the extreme points of the shoots, and with a sharp penknife cut off their lower ends at right angles, placing the cutting on the nail of the thumb, as in cutting the nib of a pen. The cutting will be from three quarters to an inch long: strip off the leaves from the lower end to nearly half the length of the cutting; and, in order that this may be done ORDER I.

This done, dibble the cuttings into pots filled with moistened white sand from pits, or with any small sand from pits or rivers, or, in default of that, with powdered sandstone. When they are all planted, water the whole to fix them still better, and when the moisture has subsided, cover them with a small crystal or greenish crystal bell-glass fitted within the rim of the pot, and place them in the shade on a spent hot-bed, keeping them quite close till rooted. The free-striking sorts will have roots in two months, and the others at different periods from three to twelve months, most of them will be ready for transplanting into pots of the smallest size in the following March. Their rooting is easily known by their beginning to shoot, and then the bell should be taken off an hour or two daily.

Many Ericas ripen their seeds in this country, and of other sorts seeds are regularly obtained by the nurserymen from the collectors at the Cape of Good Hope. Imported seeds generally arrive in the winter, and should be sown early in the spring following, in pots filled with equal parts of peat and sand well incorporated; the seeds should be thinly covered with earth gently pressed down, and bell-glasses placed over them as over the cuttings. The soil must be kept moderately moist by gentle waterings, and in about six or seven weeks OCTANDRIA MONOGYNIA.

Seeds which are saved in this country may be sown as soon as gathered, if they ripen before November; but if after that period, it will be better to preserve them till spring, and then treat them like foreign seeds.

Only a few heaths are propagated by layers, such as E. Massoni, retorta, petiolata, and one or two other delicate sorts, which when layed require two years to throw out roots. On the continent most sorts of heaths are propagated by layers, because there they are ignorant of the easiest mode of managing cuttings. One of the best growers of heaths in Britain is a gardener of the name of Henderson, at Woodhall, in West Lothian. This judicious cultivator has had an extensive collection of Ericæ for upwards of thirty years under his care, and has given some account of his mode of management in a late volume (vol. iii. p. 323.)

He keeps his Ericas, he says, opening the glasses in winter when there is no frost, and letting the wind blow on them, and using no fire but wind blow on them, and using no fire but in time of frost." " Never," he says, " shift any plant till the pot is quite full of roots. When the plants get large, several of them will continue in good health for three or four years without shifting, and flower well. I have plants of E. retorta here, in pots seven inches in diameter, which are very bushy, being eighteen inches across, and fourteen inches high above the pot; E. infundibuliformis, two feet and a half in diameter, and two feet nine inches high; Erica pilosa between five and six feet high and three feet across, in pots eleven inches in diameter these have not been shifted for five years, and are in high health, and covered with strong fine flowers from the mouth of the pot to the top of the plant." (Caled. Mem. iii. 327. ) "A prejudice," Page observes, "having spread that the culture of heaths is difficult, one of the greatest ornaments of the greenhouse has hence of late been neglected; although the method of culture is as easy and nearly as certain as that of the Geranium, but requiring a little more delicacy in the execution.' 5391 Solan'dra Andr. 5392 acúta Andr. 5393 empetroídes Andr. 5394 turrígera Sal.
