abundance of water spraying of the foliage. 
When dormant, water sparingly and keep in 
cool temperature. Fire heat is not needed ex¬ 
cept during excessively cold weather which 
would injure distending buds. Dropping of buds 
is caused by plants drying out, or by over¬ 
watering, or being kept in high temperature 
under glass.

Cinnamomum 
(Camphor) 
Cinnamomum (amphora. (Laurus Campliora.) 
(Cainphora officinalis.) (Camphor Tree.) This 
desirable and beautiful tree is hardy at Au¬ 
gusta. Along the Atlantic and Gulf Coast it 
is largely used as a shade tree for street and 
avenue planting. In Florida the Camphor is 
now being extensively and successfully planted 
for the extraction of gum. The tree is of a 
very rapid and stately growth; leaves bright 
glossy green. The young growth is very at¬ 
tractive, as it is tinged with red, which gives 
a most striking and pleasing effect. The 
Camphor will do well on poor soil, but will 
give a most satisfactory growth when prop¬ 
erly fertilized and when grown on well-drain¬ 
ed soil. It does not thrive in wet situations. 
In transplanting, both the pot-grown and open 
ground plants, should have their side branches 
cut back and the plants defoliated; otherwise 
loss is apt to ensue.
