Linnaeus in 1753 on page 492 of the Species Plantarum. But on page 491 of 
the same work Linnaeus published the name Rosa cinnamomea, which is gen- 
erally considered to be the same as R. pendulina. Keller uses the name R. cin- 
namomea for the species described under that name in 1759 by Linnaeus (Sys- 
tema. Naturae, ed. 10, vol. 2, p. 1062). According to present rules of botanical 
nomenclature, R. cinnamomea must be used for the first species described under 
that name, and our plant being a form of that species, is here placed under it. 
Rosa cinnamomea malyi was first discovered by Herr Maly on the slopes of 
the mountains in Dalmatia, and was by him introduced into cultivation. 
33200. Rosa macrophylla Lindl. Rose. 
32201. Rosa fedtschenkoana Regel. Rose. 
Distribution. — A little known species from Turkestan. 
33202. Rosa hemispheric a Herrmann. Rose. 
From Bitton Vicarage, Bristol, England. Presented by Rev. Henry N. Ella- 
combe. Received March 19, 1912. 
Procured for breeding experiments. 
33203 and 33204. Diospyros kaki L. f. Persimmon. 
From Tokyo, Japan. Presented by Mr. T. Watase, Tokyo Plant, Seed & Imple- 
ment Co. Received March 23, 1912. 
Cuttings of the following, quoted notes by Mr. Watase: 
33203. " Uzaemon. Astringent variety." 
33204. " Myotan. Late, sweet variety." 
"The above cuttings were those with pedicels left from staminate flowers." 
33205 to 33234. 
From Granada, Spain. Purchased from Mr. Pedro Giraud, at the request of Mr. 
Walter T. Swingle, Bureau of Plant Industry. Received March 23, 1912. 
Quoted notes by Mr. Walter T. Swingle, unless otherwise noted. 
"The following collection of grafted plants, rooted cuttings, and scions or cuttings 
embraces some of the principal varieties of fruits grown in Granada. Dr. Gustav Eisen 
has shown that many of the so-called Mission varieties of fruits grown in California in 
the early days really originated in Granada. It is hoped that some of the varieties in 
the following list will prove to be of considerable value. The shipment was made 
largely to test the possibility of shipping plants in good order from central Spain to 
the United States." 
33205. Crataegus azarolus L. Azarol. 
" Encarnado. The azarol represents a type of fruit whose cultivation has been 
much neglected in the United States. These fruits, which ripen from August 
to October in Spain and France, are from a half inch to an inch in diameter or 
even more, and have a delicious, subacid flavor, with flesh of a melting char- 
acter. In flavor and texture its fruits resemble loquats in many respects. 
These plants are grafted on the common hawthorn and are said to grow in all 
kinds of soil, both dry land and under irrigation. The variety in question is 
flesh color, supposed to be of Italian origin."
