ORDER XCm. ERICACE^. 



Of this Order we have a few representatives of the genera only, 

 viz., Erica and Philhpia, while in Cape Colony, which is the head- 

 quarters of the gemis. several Inmdred species are found, in addition 

 to which at least eight or ten other genera inhabit different parts of 

 the Cape Colony, none of which find a home in Natal. The Rhododen- 

 drons belong to this Order, but none of them are natives of Africa. 

 Some species of the family have medicinal properties and some are 

 poisonous, but none are of much value except as ornamental plants.
