Is a hand- some evergreen, with pretty, broad leaves, light on the under surface. Will grow in very poor sand, where few plants will live, although, of course, it does better when properly manured.

C. Cassia (?).* E T. Chinese Cinnamon, or Cassia lignea. In common with a half-dozen or more large firms offering Cinnamon trees, we have heretofore listed this species of Cinnamon as C. Zeylanicum. We have but lately ascertained that the species we grow is not the Ceylon Cinnamon, but a hardier sort from China and Japan. It fur- nishes a thicker bark, greatly used in adulterating the Ceylon article, cassia buds, cassia oil, and cam- phor gum from the roots. It is undoubtedly a valu- able economic tree, and will be useful for Florida, as it stands hard frosts unharmed, and grows luxuriantly in very poor soil. A very handsome ornamental tree of small size. We have a large stock in various sizes, pot-grown. 1 year old, 10 cts. each, $1 per doz.; 3 years old, 18 to 24 inches high, 20 cts. each, $ per doz.; 24 to 36 inches, 30 cts. each, $3 per doz. C. Zeylanicum.* * * E T. The genuine Ceylon- Cinnamon Tree. It is not so hardy as the other species named, and can only be grown in frostless regions. Pot-plants, 40 cts. each, $4 per doz.
