Elaeodendron orientale, Jacq. A graceful and handsome plant: the mature Lvs. are very different from the juvenile Lvs.. being obovate, obtuse, crenate, cuneate at base, and 2-3 in. long, and the slender graceful young Lvs. pass into them by gradual transition : fls. less than Km- across in close axillary cymes which are shorter than the Lvs.; pedicels equaling or surpassing the corolla; calyx deeply lobed; petals yellow-green: drupe size of olive, oblong. Madagascar, Mauritius.—The plant holds its lower foliage well, or throws out new foliage to take the place of that which drops. It thrives in either an intermediate or a warmhouse. Prop, by single eye cuttings in small pots, kept rather warm. It has been said that Aralia Chabrieri of gardens belongs to this species (although of a different family), but this is apparently an error. See Polyscias for a discussion of this plant. CH
