Logania (James Logan, Governor of Pennsylvania in Colonial times). Loganiaceae. About 20 herbs and shrubs of Austral, and probably 1 in New Zeal., with mostly small white or flesh-colored more or less imperfect fls. Lvs. opposite: corolla campanulate or the tube cylindrical, the lobes 4 or 5; stamens 4 or 5, inserted in the tube; ovary 2-celled, becoming an ovoid or globular or oblong dehiscent caps. The loganias are seldom cult. They probably require the treatment of other coolhouse Australian things. L. floribunda, R. Br., is an erect shrub with lanceolate or linear lvs. and white fls., of which the females are usually smaller than the males, in axillary short cymes or panicles. L.B.C. 12:1118. L. latifolia, R. Br., is an erect shrub or undershrub, often glaucous, with broadly obovate to oblong elliptic lvs. and white fls. in dense terminal cymes. Both species grow about 3 or 4 ft. high.
