This genus is dedicated to the memory of Caroline, the late wife of Dr. A. Henry, who accompanied him to China in 1891, and was with him successively at Shanghai and in Formosa. Mrs. Henry assisted to some extent in collecting, but delicate health necessitated change, and she first went to Japan, where she made a small collection of plants around Arima, near Kobe. Subsequently Mrs. Henry went to Denver, Colorado, accompanied by Miss M. Henry, now Mrs. A. S. Crum, of Mailoor, in the Kilghiris. These two ladies made a considerable collection of Colorado plants, a set of which is at Kew; but Mrs. Henry grew gradually worse, and died in 1894. (English)
