Aromatic Plants.
In the Queensland Court are leaves of the Eucalyptus citriodora (Hooker), a tree to be found in the north of New South Wales and the south of Queensland. The distilled oil forms a superb cosmetic, and the yield is fair. Another lemon-scented tree occurs in the southern forest tracts of Queensland, Backhausia citriodora (F. M.), discovered there by Walter Hill, Esq. The loaves of this tree also deserve distillation.
