 the largest about 7 feet in height, at Trewidden, near 

 Penzance. 



COROKIA BUDDLEIOIDES. New Zealand. A tall- 

 growing evergreen shrub, with leaves 2 to 6 inches 

 in length. C. Cotoneaster is a spreading shrub with 

 small leaves. Both species bear yellow, sweet- 

 scented flowers. The first was at Ludgvan Rectory, 

 Cornwall, the second at Bishop's Teignton. South 

 Devon. 



CORREA. Australia. Greenhouse evergreen shrubs 

 which do well at Tresco, and also in some gardens 

 on the mainland. C. cardinalis is the most brilliant, 

 but C. ventricosa is almost as highly coloured. The 

 two named, as well as C. alba, C. bicotor, C. carnea, 

 C. glauca, C. magnified, and C. virens are sometimes 

 seen in good health and flower on the mainland. 



CORYNOCARPUS L^viGATUS. New Zealand. An 

 evergreen tree, bearing panicles of white flowers fol- 

 lowed by plum-like fruit. A healthy young plant is 

 at Ludgvan Rectory. 



CRINODENDRON HOOKERI (TRICUSPIDARIA HEXA- 

 PETALA). Chili. A particularly handsome shrub, 

 growing to a height of 5 feet, bearing large, drooping, 

 cherry-red, urn-shaped flowers on long peduncles, 

 the petals being very fine in texture. In many 

 gardens. 



CYTISUS RACEMOSUS Peak of Teneriffe. One of 

 the commonest and most popular greenhouse plants. 

 It grows to 8 or 10 feet in height in the south-west
