CHAP. XXXIII. CELASTRA‘CEX. EUO’NYMUS. 501 
introduced in 1825; and there are plants of it in the London Horticultural 
Society’s Garden, and in some nurseries. A standard plant of it, in the 
garden of the London Horticultural Society, in an open situation, was, 
in 1834, 4 ft. high, after being 4 years planted. Plants against a wall, in the 
same garden, are 10 ft. high. The species is striking from the whiteness 
of its stem, and the largeness of its leaves. The plant above mentioned, 
which is trained to a wall, flowers pretty freely ; but the flowers are small, 
and the cymes of them do not make a show: they are of a yellowish green 
colour.

dulous, obscurely 4-cornered, with, usually, geminate pendulous seeds. (Don’s Mill.,2.p. 5.) A 
shrub, growing J0 ft. high, in the forest of Nepal, where it is very ornamental, both when in 
flower and when loaded with its yellow pendulous capsules, each of which is furnished with as 
many as 6 black pendulous seeds. The flowers are white, very large, scentless, slightly nodding; 
capsule very nearly globular, about the size of a cherry, 4-celled, 4-valved. Seeds oval, black, half 
covered by a brilliant red, minutely lobed, warted aril. (Ibid.) This very desirable species has not 
yet been introduced. 
App. i. Half-hardy Species of Eudnymus, or Species which, ac- 
cording to G. Don, “will, no doubt, turn out to be truly 
hardy.” 
The following are already in the country, and treated as frame or green- 
house plants :— 
* E. gréssus Wall., a tree of Nepal, growing 12 ft. high, and introduced in 
1824, . 
& E. micrdnthus D. Don, a Nepal shrub of 8 ft. high, introduced in 1820. 
sé KE. licidus D. Don, a Nepal shrub of 6 ft. high, introduced in 1820. 
*¥ E. japénicus Thunb., an elegant Japan tree, growing to the height of 
20 ft., introduced in 1804. 
RB E. echindtus Wall., a climbing and rooting shrub from Nepal, in 1824. 
(fig. 170.) Found on mountains, at the height of from 5,000 ft. to 7,000 ft. 
The following species, marked in Don’s Miller as frame plants, are not yet 
introduced : — 
4 E. téngens Wall., a tree of Nepal, growing to the height of 16 ft. or _ 
20 ft., the yellow bark of which is employed by the Nepalese for the pur- <> 
pose of marking the forehead with their religious symbol, commonly called 
ticha. This is also found on mountains. In p. 173., under the order Ce- 
lastraceze, are enumerated two other Nepal species, which will probably 
prove hardy ; and which will be found described below, 
* E. glaber Roxb., atree growing to the height of 15 ft., in Chittagong, in 
the East Indies, 
* E. fimbridtus Wall., a tree from the Sewalfik Mountains, in India, with & 

doubly serrated leaves. 
st E. indicus Heyne, an East India shrub 8 ft. high. 
R E. vagans Wall., a most extensive climbing and rambling shrub, in the 
mountainous forests of Nepal, resembling Z. echinatus, but never throwing out roots at the joints. 
‘ sé E. subtriflorus Blume, and E, Thunbergianus Blume, are Japan shrubs, of which little appears to 
e known. 
The following species are those above alluded to, as mentioned in Royle’s I//ustrations, and not in- 
cluded in Don’s Miller : — 
E. péndulus Wall., a Nepal tree, considered by some as identical with Z. japénicus, and found on 
the Himalaya Mountains, at an elevation of about 5,000 ft. a 
E. frigidus Wall. is also a Nepal tree, which is generally found with Z, fimbriata, at not less than 
8,000 ft, of elevation.
