THE CARISSA, OR NATAL PLUM. 



This is one of the best hedge plants for south Florida, and as an ornamental is worthy of a place 

 in every garden. Its white, waxy flowers have the fragrance of the jasmine, and its scarlet fruits 

 which are here shown natural size, make an excellent sauce or jelly. The Carissa comes from 

 South Africa. (Fig. 36)
