Plate IX. 



Fruits of the Pera do Campo of Brazil (Eugenia klotzschiana), S. P. I. No. 37392. 



A wild bush, not over 5 feet high, bearing on second-year shoots not 2 feet from the ground 

 several large russet-brown fruits which so scent the air that their presence can be detected 

 many yards away. The melting acid pulp is aromatic and agreeable, and more or less pur- 

 gative. The bush will probably stand light frosts. (Photographed (P15465FS) by Dorsett
