Escallonia illinita Presl

국표에 없다.

An open, loose-habited, evergreen shrub up to 10 (perhaps more) ft high; branchlets not downy, but furnished with stalked glands, and resinous when young. Leaves obovate or oval, from 3⁄4 in. to 21⁄2 in. long, nearly to quite half as wide; tapered at the base, rounded or abruptly pointed at the apex, finely toothed, not downy on either surface, but glossy green above and more or less clammy with a resinous secretion when young; stalk 1⁄8 to 1⁄4 in. long. Panicle 3 or 4 in. long, 11⁄2 in. diameter, cylindrical, thinly hairy and glandular; each branch of the panicle one- to five-, more often three-flowered and springing from the axil of a leaf-like bract. Flowers white, 1⁄3 in. wide at the top, the claws of the petals forming a tube 1⁄2 in. long. Calyx green, bell-shaped, with five linear lobes.

Native of Chile; introduced early in the nineteenth century. This plant has an odour distinctly suggestive of the pigsty, but by no means so offensive as that comparison would suggest. E. illinita is one of the hardiest of the genus. It has for many years been grown in the open at Kew, and survives even severe winters although sometimes badly cut.
