Canella alba Mussay (order Canellacece) grows wild in the West Indiesand Florida. The bark, known as white bark or white cinnamon, is awell-known drug, the commercial supply coming largely from the BahamaIslands. It is also used in the West Indies as a spice. 598 SPICES /iND CONDIMENTS The bark is hard, 2-5 mm. thick, Ught buff or reddish, pitted on theouter surface, striated on the inner. In cross section numerous yellowoil cells are evident, also in the inner bark delicate radiating lines. Cork (Fig. 512, A). Typical cork cells form the outer layers ofthe Xt Fig. 512. Canclla Hark {Cnnella alba). Cross section. su outer bark ronsists of K corkand ph sclerenchymati/ed cork; cor with starch cells, and o oil cells; ph bastwith 5 sieve tubes and m medullary rays containing Kr crystal rossettes. (Tsciiircu.) 2. The Phelloderm (ph), separated by tlie phellogen from the outercork, consists of several layers of f|ua(irilaleral stone cells cork-like cells, all arranged in radial rows. CANELLA BARK. GINGER. 599 3. Cortex {cor). The parenchyma contains simple or compoundstarch grains, mostly 6-8 }x (maximum 20 /i), also rosettes of calciumoxalate. Large oil cells with rather thick cuticularized walls occur hereand there. 4. Bast (ph). Tissues like those of the cortex, also sieve tubes andsingle-rowed medullary rays (m) are conspicuous. An oxalate rosetteoccurs in nearly every medullary cell. Bast fiber
