Japan. Its name, Satsuma Temari, indicates that it inhabits 
Satsuma, the most southern province of Kiusia (31° N. L.) ; 
it was probably in the beginning imported from China. At 
the present time it is seen in every garden. Its balls of white 
sterile flowers give it the appearance of the Gueldres Rose ; 
its habit, and broad oval plaited (crimped) leaves, are more 
like those of the Wayfaring Tree (Viburnum Lantana), but it 
only grows from four to six feet high.
