History, Use, Propagation, Culture, 
1003. Limonia. The general denomination of the citron in Arabia is lymoiin, whence limon and lemon, 
to which fruits this genus is nearly related. L. monophylla is a small thorny tree, with a berry the size of a 
small nutmeg, very like a lime, and called by the Hindoos wild lime. Ripened cuttings of the species root 
in sand, under a hand-glass plunged in a moist heat. 
1004. Glycosmis. From yXv^ivs, sweet, and oa-fjc/-/!, smell ; all the parts of the plant, leaves, flowers, fruit, having 
an agreeable perfume. G. pentaphylla is an elegant fragrant shrub, very common in most uncultivated lands 
in Coromandel, but chiefly under large trees, where birds have dropped the seeds. It flowers all the year 
there. The whole plant, when drying in the shade, diffuses a pleasant permanent scent ; the flowers are ex- 
quisitely fragrant ; birds eat the berries greedily. 
G. arborea has also very fragrant flowers. 
G. citrifolia is a beautiful stove plant, not, indeed, remarkable for the shewiness of its flowers, but most 
valuable on account of its fruit, which is about the size of a hazel nut, very juicy and sweet, and produced in 
profusion in our stoves. 
1005. Murraya. So named by Koenig, in honor of John Andrew Murray, knight of the Swedish order of 
Vasa, professor of medicine and botany at Gottingen, and an editor of Ijnneeus's Systema Vegetabilium. The 
species are trees of the smallest size, with dotted pinnated leaves and fragrant white flowers, quite like those 
of an orange. 
1006. Cookia. Named by Sonnerat in honor of our celebrated Captain Cook. The fruit is much esteemed 
in China, where it arrives at the size of a pigeon's egg, growing in bunches, and it is called Wampee. It grows 
well in light loam, and ripened cuttings with their leaves on root in sand in a moist heat. 
1007. GtErtnera. In memory of Joseph Gaertner, M. D. F. R. S. Acad. Imp. Petrop. Memb., author of a 
most excellent work on the fruits and seeds of plants, Stutg. 1788. It is a large climbing woody shrub, 
cultivated all over the coast of Coromandel, on account of the beauty and fragrance of its flowers. In the 
stove it requires a good deal of room to flower freely. It is easily increased in sand under a hand-glass. The 
genus is now referred to the natural order of MalpighiaceEe, among which it is remarkable for its white 
flowers. 
1008. Monotropa. From (jlovo?, one, and r^i-reo, to turn : its flowers are all turned one way. It is parasitical 
and without leaves, of a pale uniform hue, having a simple scaly stem ; allied in habit to Orobanche, to some 
of the Orchis tribe in its peculiarity of scent, which is like that of primrose, or beans in blossom. The root is 
fibrous, much branched, and somewhat creeping, growing among dead leaves or in half decaying vegetable 
mould. Sir J. E, Smith says, he could never find it truly parasitical. In Sweden, LinnEeus informs us, it is 
given dry to sheep affected with a cough. 
Its natural affinity, which is certainly to the heath, Pyrola, and similar plants, is very singular and unex- 
pected.
