Opis

Excerpt from Eucalyptus The planting of trees of various species of Eucalyptus in California has been carried on since January, 1856, when Mr. C. L. Reimer successfully introduced 14 species. During all this time neither nurserymen nor the general public have had any work on this genus by which they could identify the various species. Everything depended on the seedsmen primarily and in a secondary way on the accuracy of the records of planters. From mistake in both these respects the greatest confusion and uncertainty has arisen. Of the large number of useful species introduced into California but three or four are certainly and general! known today. The botanical works covering this genus are inaccessible to the public on account of their great cost. There are only three copies of the Eucalyptographia and two of Bentham's books in this State, as far as I know. The importance of this genus as producers of kino, oils, timber and fuel, for ornament and the reclamation of waste places and for the probable sanitary effects of several of the species together with the rapidity of growth of nearly all and the remarkable adaptability to the major portion of California makes a means of identification a want that should be supplied. Baron Ferdinand Von Mueller has, in the broad spirit of a true scientific man, given me the use of his great work on this genus, even to copying the plates.
