THE MANZANILLA, A CENTRAL AMERICAN FRUIT TREE. (CRATAEGUS 
STIPULOSA. SEE S. P. I. NO. 45575.) 
The manzanilla, a species of hawthorn, grows wild and is also culti- 
vated in the highlands of Guatemala. The fruits are prized by 
the Guatemalans for jellies and jams, but are also eaten stewed. 
Average fruits are an inch or more in diameter, yellow, with russet 
dots and a blushed cheek. The plant is easily grown and should 
succeed in California, Florida, and elsewhere in the subtropics.
