Maximowicz refers V. pubinerve to V. Opulus, but the Kew 

 specimen is certainly V. phlebotrichum. 



The leaves of this species furnish the " Sweet Tea " of Omei, 

 according to Mr. Faber. Szechuen specimens connect V. Wrightii, 

 Miq., with V. phlebotrichum, the characteristic deciduous hairs 

 being present, though less numerous.
