History, Use^ Propagation, Culture, 
produce plenty of pods from August till the end of September. They may be also raised under hand-glasses, 
and in very warm situations treated as common annuals. C. cerasiforme is sometimes cultivated for the same 
purposes as the common capsicum. 
454. Leea. Named after the first James Lee, of the Hammersmith Nursery, an excellent cultivator and 
most worthy man. The plants have little more beauty than a hemlock. Cuttings root easily under, a hand, 
glass in heat. 
4.55. Spermadictyon. From irxi^fjc/K, seed, and lixrvov, a net, on account of the manner in which the seeds 
cover the placenta. A pretty stove plant with sweet white flowers. 
456. Dentella. A diminution of dens, a tooth ; the divisions of the corolla having each three little teeth. 
4.57. Macrocnemum. From (jLa.y,^ot, long, and v'n{j^», a stamen. 
458. Exostemma. From £|, out, and ffriy^jjiM, a crown, in allusion to the protrusion of the stamens ; one of 
the characters on account of which the genus has been separated from Cinchona. 
The genus Cinchona, which was so named after the Countess of Cinchon, who being cured by the use of 
this plant, first brought it into notice, is very nearly related to this, and is a most important genus, as fur- 
nishing the Peruvian or Jesuit's bark. The bark is taken from various species ; but that which produces 
the best is said to be C. officinalis, a native of Peru, and not yet introduced to this country. The 
Jesuit's bark tree of Jamaica is the Exostemma caribaeum, but land there is too valuable for its culture. 
Our species are not very common in collections, being of slow growth, and not very easily propagated. Sweet
