Casimiroa. Rutaceæ.
Increased readily by seeds.
Cassandra (Leather Leaf). Ericaceæ.
Propagated by seeds very carefully sown, or by layers.
Cassava (Manihot Aipe). Euphorbiaceæ.
Propagated by cuttings of the stem and by suckers. Cut the large main stalks into pieces from four to six inches long and set them perpendicularly into the ground in the field. The cuttings can be struck at various times, but spring is usually preferred. The stalks can be kept over winter by covering with sand on a dry knoll, placing the stalks and sand in layers. Cover the whole with boards to shed the water. Suckers which appear during summer can be removed and planted or made into cuttings.
Cassia. Leguminosæ.
