The native home of this plant is said
to be Kaffra, in southern Abyssinia.
1t was not until it had been in use for
centuries by the Arabians that a plant

Louis XIV. From this plant seedlings
were sent to Martinique, and from
these plants again seedlings were sent
to Jamaica, Cayenne and San Domin-

were sent to Surinam. In fact. it was
