Text Appearing Before Image:
Garcinia mangostana L. Clusiaceae. Mangosteen. From Peradeniya, Ceylon. Plants presented by Dr. F. A. Stockdale, Di-rector of Agriculture for Ceylon, through Mrs. Arthur Curtis James.Received June 5, 1922. In the hope of establishing the mangosteen in our tropical dependencies,many importations of seeds and plants have been made during the last 20 years.Indeed, the office has made it a point never to miss an opportunity to securenew stock, whether in the form of a shipment of seeds by parcel post or awardian case of young plants which some traveler returning from the Easthas generously volunteered to bring home. This lot of plants which Mrs. ArthurCurtis James secured from the Botanic Garden at Peradeniya, Ceylon, andwhich she has carefully brought with her on the deck of the yacht Aloha, waspresented by Dr. F. A. Stockdale, Director of Agriculture for Ceylon. (WilsonPopenoe.) For description of the mangosteen, see S. P. I. No. 51465. Inventory 71, Seeds and Plants Imported. PLATE V.
Text Appearing After Image:
A Jujube for Moist Tropical Regions. (Ziziphus mauritiana Lam.;S. P. I. NO. 55485.) The Chinese jujube (Ziziphus jujuba) is being cultivated withtgreat success in California andthe Southwestern States. It is not successful, however, infsouthern Florida or in humidtropical regions generally. Ziziphus mauritiana, on the other hand, grows and fruits wellat the Plant Introduction Garden, Miami. Fla., and will probably be suitable for cultivationin Porto Rico, Hawaii, and the Philippines. It is a small tree of attractive appearance, andits greenish yellow fruits, here illustrated in natural size, when stewed are scarcely distin-guishable from the best northern plums. (Photographed by E. L. Crandall, PhotographicLaboratory, February 7,1922; P27245FS.) Inventory 71, Seeds and Plants Imported. Plate VI
