Miller’sFigures of Plants, Vol, ii. 1760.—“Some Persons have affirmed it” (Fr. ananasse) “was brought from Louisiana; others, that it came from Virginia; but I received some Plants of this Kind from a curious Gentleman of Amsterdam, who assured me they were brought from Surinam.” Cf. Duchesne,.Histoire Naturelle des Fraisiers, p. 190, Paris, 1766. Also J. Gay,Annales des Sciences Naturelles, viii. 1857, p. 204. Also Knight,Tr. Hort. Soc. iii. p. 207. None of these accept the Surinam theory of the “curious Gentleman.”
