			Agapetes (Greek agapetos, beloved or lovable, referring to the beauty of the plant). Ericaceae, subfamily Vaccinioideae. Shrubs sometimes cultivated for their handsome flowers and attractive foliage.

			Evergreen plants, often epiphytic and with the sts. thickened at the base: lvs. alternate, or irregularly whorled, short-petioled or sessile, entire or slightly toothed: fls. in axillary fascicles or short racemes, rarely solitary; calyx-tube turbinate, with 5-lobed limb; corolla tubular to campanulate, with 5, usually curved lobes; stamens 10, with short filaments, anthers produced into 2 long beaks opening at the apex by a pore or slit; ovary 5-celled, inferior: fr. a juicy or dry berry with many seeds.—About 30
			species from the southern Himalayas to N. Austral., chiefly in the humid mountain forests at elevations of 3,000-6,000 ft.

			The several species in cultivation arc highly ornamental shrubs with handsome lustrous foliage and showy usually scarlet or bright red clustered flowers. They are sometimes grown in warm greenhouses in Europe, but apparently none of them is in the American trade.
			They grow best in a porous soil consisting of peat, leaf-mold, fibrous loam and plenty of sand; the smaller kinds are suitable for growing in baskets on account of their epiphytic nature. Out-of-doors they could be grown only in warmer temperate regions, in localities in which the air possesses sufficient humidity and in partial shade.

			Propagation is by cuttings of half-ripened wood under glass in the warm greenhouse.
