PREFACE. 



The first edition of this Catalogue, publiehe J eleven years ago, 
has in the Sscond Edition now ofiered to the public been largely' 
augmented in genera, species, and descriptive .det^iil. Though not 
exhaustive of ornamental exotics in cultivation, or of weeds in the 
field, the Catalogue inay in other respects be considered tolerably 
complete up to date. It contains '3,222 named species and 
varieties against 2,020 published in the original list of 1880. The 
work maintains its former character generally, and with the ad- 
ditional indexes appended, it is hoped that those who are not 
conversant with scientific terms,may.be able to discover a fair pro- 
portion of the proper names of plants ; and hence a knowledge of 
their affinities and uses, as described by many authors. To facili- 
tate the -determination of local species, nearly 800 Kanarese 
names have been entered, and type specimens of Natural Orders 
have mostly been preferred from plants with vemaicular apppl- 
lations. Many of these local, names are published for the first 
time, and as the subject is one of some obscurity, the Compiler 
trusts that errors will be leniently dealt with. The credit attach- 
ing to ,the vernacular wo:^k falls to Siddapur Davannah, the 
plant collector who reported the greater part of the names, and to 
M. Krishnaswamy Chetty, the writer who revised and tabulated 
the same. 

The diagnostic characters attached to each Natural Order, 
and other abridged details^ such as the approximate color of the 
flower, are only intended to guide the student to a fuller des- 
cription in standard works of Systematic Botany. Of the latter. 
Sir Joseph Hooker's great work " The Flora of British India " 
will, when completed, be the standard text. ' 

Bangalore is situa,ted in 12 ° 57' 37" North latitude and 77 ° 
•36' 56" East longitude, at an undulating elevation of 3,000 to 
' 3,100 feet. The average rainfall for the year is 35 inches, but ■ 
there is along dry season extending v from December till May 
when a great variety of trees, shrubs, and ierbs are ripened into 
a condition of fertility and subsequent ySeed-bearing. The three 
principal ga,rdens of Southern India,<Madras, Bangalore, and 
Ootacamund, are properly situated to r)6present, respectively, the 
tropical, sub-tropical, and alpine conditions of the South Indian i 
climate, and plants from any part of the peninsula will usually 
succeed in one or other of them. 

The eafly history of the Lal-Bagh— Red Garden — ^is wrapped 
in some obscurity, but it is known to have been a prolific fruit gar- 
den during the time of Hyder Ali, and seems to have maihtained the 



u 

Bamo function until long after the fallofTippn Sultan. The tank- 
bund ^as originally constructed by forced labor, but was after- 
wards greatly improved during-the-incumbenny of Mr. William New, 
the first pjjofegsional Superintendent of the gardens. During the 
Htter part of Tippu's rule, and for nearly' half the present century, 
the Lal-Bagh was supervised by' two Muhammadan Darogahs, 
father and son. The former, Mahomed Ali, seems to have been in- 
vested with considerable powers, and was able to do a great deal for 
his charge ; but Abdul Khader, the son, had limited action and the 
garden became an ill-kept jungle of fruit trees. Of the latter, some 
unique specimens of Mangifera indica still adorn the grounds. In 
1836, the Chief Commissioner of Mysore, Sir Mark Cubb3n, made 
over the Lal-Bagh to an Agri-Horticultural Society, which was then 
formed for the first time at Bangalore. But on the dissolution 
of the Society in 1842, or six years later, the property was restored 
to Government, and has remained in its possession up to the pre- 
sent time. Dr. Hugh Cleghorn, and Mr. Jaffray (Superintendent 
of the Gardens at Msidra's) visited the Lal-Bagh in July 1856, and 
on the recommendation of these officers, it was established, in the 
following year, as the Governriient Horticultural Gardeps. Mr. New- 
arrived from Kew, and took charge of the gardens in April 1858. 
Ill December, 1863, he resigned the office and was succeeded 
by another Kew man, Mr. A. A. Black. He, unfortunately, was; 
in poor health, and on his resignation in October 1865, Mr. New 
was re-appbinted, and held office until his death in August 
18V3. Since the Rendition of the Province in 1881, the Institution 
has been maintainted by the Mysore Statej His Highness' Govern- 
ment have shown much solicitude for the improvement of the' 
gardens, which now cover an area of about • 100 acres. 

A large conservatory,' the foundation ston6 of which was laid 
by His Eoyal Highness Prince Albert Victor of Wales, on the 
30th November 1889, has recently been cons'tracted at a cost of: 
Rs: 76,000.

chargp of the Lil-Bagh from the time of Tippu : —

MALPICHIAGEyE. 

THE MALPIGHIA FAMILY. 

This large American family of trees and climbing 
shrubs is represented in India by only three genera and 
tM'elve species. The latter are characterised by tlieir clim- 
bing habit, opposite simple leavesj and regular flowers 
having fringed and clawed petals. The large gland or 
glands at the base of calyx is also a peculiar condition 
of the family. The plants named at foot are all highly 
ornamental, and it is not difficult to procure specimens 
in local gardens.

ZYGOPHYLLE£. 

THE BEAN-CAPER FAMILY. 

The Indian species of this family are all herbs or 
small shrubs. The indigenous herb, Sanna neggilu gida, 
so well known for its medicinal properties, is an excellent 
type of the Order. It is usually found in damp soil under 
tank-bunds. The introduced tree, Gmiacum officinale, 
affords the valuable wood known as Ugmm-vitce.

GERANiAGE/E. 

GERANIUM AND SORREL FAMILY. 

Herbs, undershrubs, and rarely trees. The mor- 
phology of this large Order can only be determined by 
studying one or two good type specimens of each tribe. ' 
The latter being treated by some botanists as distinct 
Orders. 

Tribe I Geraniea. Herbs or undershrubs with, 
frequeaatly, swollen nodes and membranous stipules.

Examine all the parts of any garden geranium. In doing 
so, note the peculiar formation of the fruit, which is not 
unlike a crane's bill. 

Tribe II Oxalidem. Herbs or small trees with com- 
pound sensitive leaves. Compare the Bilimbi tree with the 
perenninal herb Pullampurasi soppu. 

■ Tribe III Balsamineoe. Herbs with succulent stems, 
simple leaves and irregular showy flowers. See the garden 
Balsam, which has run wild about Bangalore. 

Tribe IV Tropimlaceee. Trailing herbaceous plants 
with alternate, simple, smooth, and often peltate leaves. 
Flowers irregular and showy. Fruit acrid. The intro- 
duced bedding plants popularly called Nasturtium really 
belong to the genus Tropceolum, and are good types of 
the tribe.

RUTACE^. 

THE RUE AND OEANGE FAMILY. 

A large tropical and sub-tropical Order of trees and 
shrubs ; the tribe Butece being almost exclusively herbs. 
The foetid herb, Butece graveolens, is said to be obnoxious 
to snakes, and it is often cultivated near habitation's on 
that account. The orange tribe, Auranfiecs, is well marked 
by its white fragrant flowers, glandular leaves, and hand- 
some fruit. With types of the above, compare specimens 
of Zanthoxylon and ToddaUa, genera representing two 
additional tribes of the family.

THE MANGO FAMILY. 

An important tropical Order of trees and shrubs. 
There is no special characteristic in the leaf arrangement 
beyond the fact that a pecuHar gum-resin is often dis- 
charged by the tender foliage and bark, as in the genua 
Anacardium. The flowers are small, uniexual, bisexual, or 
polygamous ; also unsymmetrical, by the frequent abortion 
of stamens. Ovary generally one-celled. Nos. 3, 5 and 7

PAPILIONACEa;, 
THE PEA FAMILY, 

It should b© noted that this Order of herbs, shrubs^ 
and trees, the largest but one of flowering plants, is 
arranged under three well defined Sub-Orders — I Pap- 
lionacecBy II Gasalpinim, and III Mimosek. The first 
of these is cosmopolitan, and possesses the typical^ 
irregular, butterfly pea-flower. E^resentatives are found 
in all countries', mostly in the form of herbs, shrubs, and 
twicers ; the trees bemg largely confined to the tropics. 
See the garden pea^ or the field bean, Ave&e^ es^iS. 

Cresalpinieae is confined to the tropical, sub-tropical,, 
and warm temperate parts of the world. It is largely 
made up of trees and shrubs with finely pimmte leaves 
and handsome, irregulair flowers. Examine Nos. 65, 73- 
and 77, all' of whidi are good types. 

Mimosese is also restricted to the warmer parts of 
the globe. The small regular flowers; are usually arrang- 
ed in dense globular heads (puff-balls) or eyhndrical 
spites.. See the indigenous genera. The prqgresave' 
transition from the irregular to the regular form of 
flower can be distinctly traced through these Sub- 
Orders Leguminosae contains nearly 7000 knowB 
spepies.

ROSAGEyE. 

THE ROSE FAMILY. 

An important Order of herbs, shrubs, and trees ; 
mostly confined to cool temperate regions. Owing to con- 
siderable diversity in structure the family is arranged 
into tribes, and by some botanists into sub-orders. Its 
general characters are defined as follows: — Leaves 
alternate, rarely opposite, stipulate. Flowers regular, 
(except in Ghrysobalane<s) usually showy, and often 
fragrant.' Corolla polypetalous. Stamens indefinite and 
perigynous. Ovary of one or more free or connate 
carpels. Fmii variable, but often conspicuous and

THE SAXIFRAGE FAMILY. 

An Order of herbs, shrubsj and a few tropical trees. 
Excepting the latter, its species are scattered through- 
out the cold and temperate regions of the world, or at 
high elevations in tropical, and snb-tropical countries. 
Leaves alternate, simple, and usually entire ; or merely 
lobed. Flowers less conspicuous than in Bosac&s and 
usually irregular. Stylep corresponding to the number 
of carpels. This family is closely allied to the precedd- 
ing one, although, comparatively, 'of little, economic 
value. It consists largely of alpine weeds.

COiBRETACE£. 

THE MYEOBALAN FAMILY. 

Trees or shrubs ; the latter often cHmbing. The 
leaf arrangement is variable, excepting that the leaves are 
extipulate and usually entire. Flowers with or without 
a coroUa, in small crowded racemes , often creamy-white 
and occasionally foetid as in Terminalia helerica. The 
most constant character is found in the inferior one- 
eelled ovary, in which there are 2 — 7 ovules suspended 
by a funicle. The genus Terminalia affords some of our 
commonest forest trees. See the glandular leaf-stalk 
and winged fruit of some of the latter. 

Genera 4 and 5 are much cultivated for their hand-

part of them are also marked with glandular dots. 
Flowers axillary or termioal, regular, and usually showy 
on account of the indefinite number and large' growth of 
the stamens. The genus Eugenia, of which the local 
tree Nerale mara is a type, ia represented in the hill 
forests of India by over 100 species. But the great

This is a large tropical family of herbs and shrubs, 
rarely climbers and trees. Leaves opposite, simple, 
entire, and prominently marked by three to five-nerves 
running from base to apex. Flowers regular and usually 
showy. Petals twisted or contorted in sestivation. 
Stamens, never exceeding ten, but often a smaller 
number.- The peculiar structure of the latter is a ready

THE PRICKLY PEAE FAMILY.. 

A large American Order of succulents. The prict- 
ly pear and a few of its toiigeners are naturalised in 
India. Bhpsalis Cassytha, is the only native plant. The 
Cactese are easily recognised by their peculiar habit, of- 
which there are three distinct forms, viz., the columnar, 
the globular, and the lobed or jointed. The prickly 
pear of hedge-rows is a good type of the latter and also 
of the family generally.

Order LXVI. 

COMPOSlTyE. 

THE COMPOSITE FAMILY. 

Herbs, shrubs, or rarely trees ; the latter being soft 
wooded, and mostly indigenous to South America. This 
is the largest Order of flowering plants, comprising about 
8,000 known species from all parts of the world. It is 
also very clearly defined by the following characters : — 

1. The usually herbaceous nature of species. 

2. The capitate inflorescence, i. e., the gathering 

into a single dense head of many individual 
florets, so that the whole might be mistaken 
for a single large flower. The daisy, for 
example, is often looked upon as a simple 
flower. 

3. The united or syngenesious anthers. 

4. The inferior ovary containing one erect ovule. 

Being a very large family, Gdmpositse. is divided 
into several tribes and numerous sub-tribes. The modifi- 
cations of structure found under the headings Tubidi- 
flora, and Lig'diflorce should be carefully noted by the 
Indian student. Nos. 4 1 and 46 represent these two 
Sub-Orders.

OLEACEyE. 

THE OLIVE AND JASMINE FAMILY, 

An Old World family of trees and shrubs, charac- 
terised by long domestic use and a few technical points 
of interest. Of the latter note the want of symmetry in 
the flower, the stamens being only two in number while 
the sepals and petals are usually in fours and fives. 
Again, the oyary is 2 — celled, hence we have the repro- 
ductive organs made up of two stamens and the same 
number of carpels. The tribe Jasmnece has many 
species affording deliciously fragrant white and yellow- 
JBowers.

Order LXXVI. 

ASCLEPIADAGE£. 

THiE MILKWEED FAMILY. ; 

, ^s in thq prece^ding family, this large tropical Order 5 
is pharacterised by a milky juice. There are no trees, and 
the numerous shrubs are often of a climbing habit. The 
reproductive or essential organs of the flower are arranged ; 
in a manner peculiar to this Order alone. Anthers 
coherent, ■with the pollen masses resting upon the stigma, 
which is 5 rayed or columnar. CorcTnal processes aaigled, 
fleshy, and more or less columnar. When the structure 
of the flower is dice understood, it is not difiScult to 
determine plants of the Asclepiadacese. ^Examine species 
oflSTos, 1, 6, 14 and 18, The Roofers oi Hoya vifidiflcra 
are absolutely green, while there is a strong tendency to 
yellowish-green in m^ny indigdhoiis species.

GONVOLVULACEyE, 

THE BINDWEED FAMILY. 

The plants of this Order are mostly of a twining or 
trailing habit, but there are also some erect shrubs, and 
a fe\v^ trees. Confined almost exclusively to tropical and 
sub-tropical regions. Leaves alternate and exstipulate, 
usually long-petiolate. Flowers conspicuous and gaily 
coloured, campatiulate or funnel — shaped; cymose and 
bracteate. Note the plaited corolla which is an unusual 
condition in gamcipetalae. Also the annular disc sur- 
rounding the superior 2 — 4 celled ovary. Seeds definite, 
being usually 4 — 1. 

The elephant creeper, Argyreia s^eciosa, is a good 
large type of the family. The tribe Guscutea consists of 
leafless parasites suspended from the trunks and branches 
of trees in the cooler parts of India.

whorled ; exstipulate. Flowers irregular, and anisomerous 
by the suppression of one or more stamens. The latter 
condition should be carefully noted as it technically sepa- 
rates the family from Solanacem. Observe, too, that the 
perfect stamens are often didynamous. The Order is 
■widely scattered over the globe and affords many popular 
garden flowers, as also a considerable proportion of the 
weeds of most countries. Nos. 1,4, 10, 15 and 21 are 
good examples for study, as they represent the more

Order LXXXV. 

OROBANCHAGEyE. 

THE BROOM-EAPE FAMILY. 

A small Order of leafless parasitical herbs found 
mostly on the roots of grasses. Excepting at the Cape 
of Good Hope, they are chiefly confined to the northern 
hemisphere. Some species are injurious to mustard, 
tobacco, and other field crops of this country. Search 
for small scaly or fleshy plants of a whitish, reddish, or 
yellowish colour.

GESMERACEiE. 

THE GESNERA FAMILY. 

Herbs or undershrubs. A large Order distributed 
through sub-tropical Asia and tropical America. Leaves 
exstipulate, simple, often wrinkled, and variously at- 
tached. In the Sub-Order Eugemerece the herbaceous 
plant is usually deciduous, life being sustained for a 
season by the scaly tubers. Flowers irregular, showy, 
bracteate, and sexual. See the cultivated garden plants 
Gloxinia and Achimenes. The Sub-Order Cyriandrece, 
which is alone indigenous to India, is determined by a 
superior ovary, exalbuminous fusiform seeds, and com- 
monly a slender sihquiform capsule. Examine species of 
Nos. 1 and 4, which represent the two Sub-Orders re- 
ferred to.

VERBENAGEyE. 

THE VERBENA FAMILY. 

An Order of trees, shrubs and herbs ; iriostly fropical. 
Its general morphology is closely allied to that of Acan- 
ihacece and Lahiutm, and the strictly determinable points 
will be found in the structure of the ovaries and the 
disposition of the ovules in the three families. The one 
under notice has an entire, superior, and usually 4-celled 
ovary, with terminal style-. Tha.Qvules are not attached 
by a hooked process, and the fruit is rarely capsular, 
being mostly a drupe or berry. The species are alsa 
much larger, as a rule, than we find them in the allied 
Orders here referred to. Examine species of Nos. 1, 5, 
7 and 10.

are typical plants of the Order, and a careful dissection 
of their parts will instruct the enquirer better than any 
written diagnosis. India possesses 55 genera and about

A large Order of tropical herbs, shrubs and trees, 
usually containing a milky juice. Leaves simple, very rarely 
divided, petiolate, and generally alternate or scattered. 
Flowers small, unisexual, (monoecious or dioecious) . ach- 
lamydeous, or more commonly with 1 — 2 floral envelopes. 
Perianth inferior, occasionally double and sometimes 
wanting. Stamens various, but often 1 — 3, anthers 2 —

THE NETTLE AND FIG FAMILY. 

An extensive Order of chiefly tropical herbs, shrubs, 
and trees. But the species differ, so considerably in 
general architiecture, and form of inflorescence, that some 
botanists prefer to treat the , group as two or 
more distinct families. Example- Canndbineee, (the hemps) 
More<B, (the mulberries and figs) Artocmpeoe^ (the 
breadfruit and Jack) and UrUceee, the nettles pro- 
per. It is necessary therefore to examine types

selected from the several tribes which otherwise substi- 
tute this important Order, and although it is admitted 
that extreme forms might well represent distinct families, 
still it is more natural and convenient to treat them as 
one. Fig trees are abundant throughout Mysore, and it 
is often remarked by the people that they have no flowers. 
This mistake arises from the latter being concealed with- 
in the fleshy receptacle, which is popularly known from 
the beginning as the fruit. A young fig is therefore the 
receptacle of the inflorescence. Leaves stipulate, and 
mostly alternate. Flowers minute, monoecious or diceciotiff. 
Stamens equal to the perianth lobes and opposite to 
them. Ova/ry 1~, celled and 1— ovuled. Examine

six or more, well-defined tribes. Woods of Casuarina

forests of northern regions, and in this respect are grateful

abounds in tropical and sub-tropical parts, of the world, 
, •while ' ground orchids' are more abundant in temperate 
regions. The diagnostic characters of the family are 
marked by tubers, or, in the case of aerial orchids, 
pseudobulbs, very handsome irregular flowers, gynan- 
drous stamens, and an inferior ovary. But for closer 
observation the student must obtain a key to the Tribes 
and numerous sub-tribes of this enormous family. Orchids 
abound largely in the hill tracts of India and Burn)ah, 
■where many fine species are easily procured. There culti- 
ation tinder glass hasi proved so successful that, in Europe,^' 
they are now the most fashionable flowers of the day. The 
genus Vanilla affords an aromatic fruit which commands 
a high market value. It may be, seen in local gardens, 
as also the operation of fertilising its flowers, which is 
necessary to produce the fruit.

THE PINE- APPLE FAMILY. 

Epiphytical and' terrestrial herbs, or undershrubs. 
Originally indigenous to tropical America but now found 
in many warm countries. The rigid leaves, sheathing 
from the rootstock, are characttristic of the Order ; as 
are also the terminal showy flowets, ' The pine-apple of 
gardens indicates a more succulent condition of growth 
than is usually found in allied genera, but otherwise it is 
a good type of the family. The 'flowers of Tillandsia

SMILAGEyE. 

THE SAKSAPAEILLA FAMILY. 

An Order of climbing herbs and shrubs largely con- 
fined to tropical America. It is distinguished from 
Dioscoreacese by a superior ovary, the absence of large 
tubers and the more evergreen nature of the leaves. The

THE LILY FAMILY. 

This large Order of herbs, shrubs, and rarely sraa 
trees, is represented in every part of the temperate an 
Bub-tropical globe. The bultaus section of the family 
marked by very beautiful flowers (true lilies), but tl 
fibrous and tuberous rooted species are usually less com 
picuous in this respect. Leaves parallel veined, sessi 
or sheathing. Perianth regular, 6 — leaved, inferio 
Stamens 6, inserted on the perianth. Anthers conspicuou 
introrse. Ovary superior, 3 — celled. Fruit capsular ( 
succulent. , Seeds numerous. The morphology of Ih 
Order should be carefully compared with that 
AmaryllidacecB, as sho^y species of the latter are ofti 
mistaken for true lilies. The ovary is superior in the oi 
family and infer'ior in the other.

and sheathing. Flowers, small^ unisexual, {moncecioiis} 
arranged on a spadix within a spathe ; the whole sup-

THE SEDGE FAMILY. 

A large Order of grass-hke herbs found in all parts 
of the world. But sedges can generally be distinguish- 
ed from proper grasses by the following conditions : — 

(a) Sterns jointless, solid, and mostly angular, 

(b) Leaves without hgules, and having closed 

sheaths. 

(c) The pistillate flower with or without a 

tubular periailth. 

Sedges usually affect marshy and undrained lands, 
while some species are entirely aquatic. As compared 
with grasses their economic value is unimportant.

The local Museum contains specimens of 
108 varieties of this grain. The kinds are 
distinguished from each other by varying 
conditions of size, form, colour, and hairiness ; 
as also by the uses to which they are ap- 
' plied and their conditions of growth. There 
are, of course, vernacular names for all.

THE FERN FAMILY. 

This large Order of herbs afld trees is represented 
in nearly all parts of the inhabited globe, but its ar- 
borescent forms^— tree ferns — are confined to tropical and 
sub-tropical regions. Being much domesticated in gar- 
dens, it follows that the student can easily procure liv- 
ing specimens for dissection and study. Ferns are 
flowerless plants.
