We have not quoted either Jacquin or Loureiro in our 

 synonymy, from a doubt whether the Cinnamon of Marti- 

 nique and the wild Cinnamon of Cochin-China really belong 

 to this species or not 



We have formerly mentioned the liability of the leaves of 

 the Cinnamon to be defaced by the scorching heat of the sun 

 in our stoves ; but this defect.seems to be entirely remedied in 

 Mr. Loddiges' new stove,. heated by steam, where the leaves 

 are continually in high beauty. 



Native of the island of Ceylon in the East-Indies. With 

 us it must be kept constantly in the stove. Flowers in June, 

 July, and August, according to the Hortus Kewensis from 

 December to February. Propagated by layers or cuttings. 

 Cultivated by Philip Miller before 1768. Communicated 

 by Messrs. Loddiges and Sons.
