HE systematic name, Fragaria, has for many 
centuries — probably for centuries before the Chris- 
CTjrI tian era, been applied by the Latins to this fruit. 
Such appellation would, very naturally, suggest 
itself as appropriate, from its unusually fine fragrance. All 
the Strawberries known as Scarlets come under the deno- 
mination of Fragaria Virginiana ; Virginia being the native 
country of the first plants of Scarlet introduced to Eng- 
land. So, also, is the Chili Strawberry called Fragaria 
Chilensis, from the countiy in which it is indigenous. The 
Pine Strawbei-ry, also, has, by botanists, been made a distinct 
species, called Fragaria grandiflora. Mr. Knight, however, 
considered these to be one species only, fi-om the possibility.
