Notes: Note source: No photograph Label source: Three samples of bark - Renewed bark 25/35, Mossed bark H/46 and Natural bark 24/38. This plant according to Howard, is a hybrid between C. calisaya and C. succirubra. On the other hand it is said to come perfect, ly true from seed, and in October last a planter sent me a fresh specimen of it from Wynaad, which had been raised from seed procured from Java, and which was identical with the Naduvattam plants. It appears to me to be only a variety of C. calisaya. Nadu, vattam? Madras Museum Herbarium No.s 25/35, 4/46 & 24/38. 3 bundles.
