106. A small tree, with copious, opposite, round, pliant, mealy 
branches. Under side of leaves and branches white from mealy 
down. Berries compressed in an early state, red on the outer 
side, yellow on the inner, finally black, with a little mealy astrin- 
gent pulp. Seed large, flat, and furrowed. The leaves turn 
of a dark red in autumn, This shrub is hardly worth cultivat- 
ing for ornament, nor is it of any particular use, except that the 
bark serves to make bird-lime; but that of the holly is much 
better, It is supposed to be the viburnum of Virgil. The 
name lantàna is from lento to make pliant, on account of the 
pliant branches.
