4 Weiss, /uvenz/e Flowering in Eucalyptus globzilus. 



Bentham to var. elata with long falcate, petioled leaves, 

 with the venation always more netted than in any form of 

 Eucalyptus aviygdalina. E. Risdo7ti appears to be very 

 variable and apparently flowers are borne both on speci- 

 mens with large opposite and connate leaves as well as 

 on others with narrow stalked leaves similar to those of 

 E. amygdalina, but with a different venation. 



Eucalyptus globulus, under certain methods of culti- 

 vation as described above, may also produce flowers on 

 young plants with immature foliage.
