Eugenia axillaris, Poir., ib. loc. Stopper. 
Native. Common in the Walsingham tract, and occasionally met 
with elsewhere, e. g., at Point Shares. It flowers in September. This 
plant is peculiarly infested by the white coccus, and rarely has a healthy 
appearance. It is hard to find flower or berries. 
E. uniflora, Linn., ib. loc. (H. Michelii, Lam.) Surinam cherry. 
Naturalized, and common in gardens; both flower and fruit may be 
found in nearly every month of the year, but flowers chiefly February

much in quality. Trees newly introduced from Trinidad, of a thorny 
variety, were much superior to those of local origin.
