JONES ON THE VEGETATION OF THE BERIMTJDAS. 253 



author claims to have first introduced this familiar English shrub 

 into the Bermudas, having raised healthy young plants from 

 seed taken from Southampton Common. It will form another 

 useful forage plant, as when cut up and bruised in a mill it is 

 much relished by cattle, and is very nutritious. According to 

 Grisebach it grows in the higher mountains of Jamaica, where 

 it has been introduced.
