 Nat. ord., Bnmiads [Bruniacese]. Linn,,

THE' A. Tea. (From tcha, the Chinese 

 name for tea. Nat. ord., Theads [Tern- 

 strbmiacese]. Linn., IQ-Monadelphia 8- 

 Polyandria.) 



Greenhouse, white-flowered, evergreen shrubs. 

 Cuttings of ripened young shoots, taken off at a 

 oint, and inserted in silver sand, under a bell-glass, 

 ind placed in a close pit, the glass being opened 

 at night to prevent damping ; also by layers from 

 hoots thrown up by the roots ; also, we believe, by 

 p-afting the tenderer kinds on vi'ridis. Has the 

 ingle Camellia been tried f Equal parts of fibry 

 eat and sandy, turfy loam packed tight. Winter 

 emp., 38 to 48. As the roots run deep, they 

 hrive best when planted out in a cool conserva- 

 ory. Plants have survived many winters round 

 London in the open ground with the protection 

 f a mat in cold weather. The'a vi'ridis is main- 

 ained by many to be the only tea-plant used by 

 he Chinese.
