 Star apple {ChrDxophiilbim cariifo Linn.). The 

 tree is a native of the West Indies, bnt is 

 quite common in Hawaii, having been intro- 

 duced at an early date. It may be identified 

 by its leaves which are a handsome green, 

 with the under surface dull golden. The 

 tree 20 to 30 feet tall, l)ears abundant sym- 

 metrical fruits, larger than a peach, which 

 varv in color from white to purple, as does 

 also the flesh. The fruit is delicious, if al- 

 lowed to ripen thoroughly, and when cut in 

 cross-section shows a star-shaped core, whence 

 the common name. There is also a white 

 variety which bears larger fruit that are pale 

 green " flushed with purple.
