A low shrub the older branches usually very bristly, the young twigs rarely without 
bristles, pubescent or glabrate; nodal spines subulate, rather stout, mostly 1 cm. long or 
less. Leaves suborbicular in outline or somewhat broader than long, incisely 5-lobed and 
dentate or crenate-dentate, 2-4 cm. wide, cordate to broadly cuneate at the base, more or 
less pubescent and with some glandular hairs, at least on the petioles, usually rugose at 
maturity ; peduncles very short, scarcely exserted from the bud-scales, mostly 1-2-flowered ; 
pedicels short; ovary glabrous; hypanthium greenish-White, glabrous; sepals white, gla- 
brous, 2.5-4 mm. long, a little longer than the hypanthium; petals obovate, about as long as 
the stamens, about two thirds the length of the sepals; berry globose, smooth, about 1 cm. 
in diameter.

gland-tipped hairs; peduncles slender, nodding, 1- or 2-flowered, mostly shorter than the 
petioles; bracts thin, 1-2 mm. long, shorter than the glandular-pubescent pedicels; ovary 
pubescent and often glandular-villous ; hypanthium pubescent, greenish, short-campanulate, 
3-4 mm. long, about as long as the usually pubescent greenish sepals; petals obovate, 
whitish, about as long as the filaments; stamens not longer than the sepals; style pubes-
