Gordonia - Handsome floweringshrubs allied to Camellia, rare in gardens, and in the case of G. pubescens, extinct as a wild tree.
These come from the "Pine Barrens" of Virginia and Florida, a region of sandy peat-bogs made beautiful by dense thickets of Gordonia Lasianthus in every stage of growth, from that of a low shrub to trees of 70 feet or more.
I may, however, say that I have never seen Gordonia in flower but once, in a park in Philadelphia many years ago, and I doubt very much if any of them be hardy in this country.

Gordonia is a small (ten square kilometers) duchy located on the border between Germany and Switzerland.
A major source of income for Gordonia is tourism, especially the rock climbing trade, as they enjoy climbing the Cliffs of Insanity located on the southern end of Gordonia.
Gordonia is ruled by a King, currently King James XVII, known as "James the Wise." King James has vowed to abdicate the throne to his son as soon as he is wed.
The patient was a 31-year-old woman, who had undergone splenectomy, at age 9 years for severe double heterozygous hemoglobinopathy (beta-thalassemia and hemoglobin E disease).
At 1 year follow-up, the patient was not infected with Gordonia sp., and echocardiographic findings were consistent with mitral valve insufficiency without oscillating intracardiac mass on valve.
To accurately identify the organism, we analyzed the p-bromophenacyl esters of mycolic acids of the isolate by using high-performance liquid chromatography, obtaining a pattern consistent with that of Gordonia sp.
Gordonia-Alatamaha’s unusual name comes from the nearly extinct Gordoniatree — a member of the bay family — and the original spelling of the nearby Altamaha River.

Emerging Infectious Diseases: Bacteremia and Endocarditis Caused by a Gordonia Species in a Patient with a Central ...(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
We report the first case of endocarditis caused by a Gordonia species genetically related to G. sputi but exhibiting some atypical biochemical features in a 31-year-old woman with a central venous catheter.
This unusual pathogen may be a new cause of opportunistic infections in patients with severe underlying diseases.
In an outbreak of sternal-wound infections (10), G. bronchialis was isolated from the hand, scalp, and vagina of a nurse as well as from her dog.
USN Ships--USS Gordonia (AF-43)(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
USS Gordonia, a 7435-ton (limiting displacement) Adria class store ship, was built at Beaumont, Texas, as a Maritime Commission R1-M-AV3 type refrigerator ship.
Acquired by the Navy upon completion, she was commissioned in mid-May 1945 and soon went to the Pacific with a cargo of provisions.
Gordonia made three more trips to the western Pacific, Korea and China, between September 1945 and June 1946.
Characterization of the 101-Kilobase-Pair Megaplasmid pKB1, Isolated from the Rubber-Degrading Bacterium Gordonia westfalica Kb1 -- Bröker et al.
The genusGordonia was proposed by Tsukamura for coryneform
The 2,332-bp fragment of plasmid pKB1 that is the smallest essential part necessary to confer stable replication in Gordonia was amplified by PCR (open white bar) and cloned into suicide plasmids pBBR1MCS-2 and pBBR1MCS-5 (31), leading to the new vector plasmids pDBMCS-2 and pDBMCS-5, respectively.
Gordonia Lasianthus - oblolly Bay) with us rarely exceeds 10 or 12 feet, growing as a shapely pyramid, with glossy dark green leaves almost evergreen in a mild winter.
Before falling they take golden, crimson, and purple tints, which are charming in mid-winter after such tints have mostly disappeared.
The fragrant white flowers come in succession from July to September, their broad-cupped petals set off by golden stamens.
The family, which contains about 600 species placed in 28 genera, is distributed through tropical and subtropical areas, but most species occur in eastern Asia and South America.
Horticulturally important members of the family include Camellia (especially C. japonica), Gordonia, and Stewartia.
The tea family is a member of the order Theales, comprising nearly 3500 species placed in 18 families.

The park's nine-hole golf course features unlimited weekday play and senior citizen discounts.
Gordonia-Alatamaha's unusual name comes from the "lost" Gordoniatree and the original spelling of the nearby Altamaha River.
In this 206 acre park, visitors will find 26 tent, trailer, and RV campsites, four picnic shelters, a group shelter, a tennis court, a miniature golf course, and a swimming pool.
