OTHER EUCALYPTS WHICH MAY BE SUITABLE TO FLORIDA. 43 



These trees are only suggested for trial, since no specimens of 

 them were found on which to base any conclusions as to their suita- 

 bility there. In fact, all eucalyptus planting in Florida, for the 

 present at least, should be only on a small scale and conducted rather 

 as an experiment for the purpose of determining the best species for 

 planting there and the various conditions of sites and soils best suited 

 to these species. Future experiments should, however, be conducted 

 on a more systematic basis than they have ever been in the past. 

 When some definite data become available on these points, then 

 the economic conditions must be considered, and these will in the end 

 determine the advisability of planting eucalyptus on a commercial 

 scale in Florida. 



With the foregoing points in view, the following are among the 

 best species not already mentioned: 



Eucalyptus acmenoides Schauer (white mahogany). 

 Eucalyptus amygdalina Labill (giant eucalyptus). 

 Eucalyptus ~botryoidcs Smith (bastard mahogany). 

 Eucalyptus corynocalyx Mill (sugar gum). 

 Eucalyptus eugenioides Sieber (white stringy bark). 

 Eucalyptus gomphoccphala Benth (tooart). 

 Eucalyptus maculata Hooker (spotted gum). 

 Eucalyptus meliodora Cunningham (yellow box). 

 Eucalyptus microcorys F. v. M. (tallow wood). 

 Eucalyptus obliqua l'Heritier (messmate). 

 Eucalyptus paniculata Smith (white iron bark). 

 Eucalyptus pilularis Smith (black butt). 



These and the 16 already discussed have* been arranged in Table 20 

 for convenient reference.
