HOLBCELLIA ( Frederick Louis Holbcell, once Supt. 

 Bot. liard., Copenhagen). Jierberidaveir. This genus 

 contains a fine shrubby climber, which is unfortunately 

 inferior in hardiness to Akebia quinutti, tbc latter being 

 one of the best of all hardy vines. Holboellia resembles 

 Akebia in having digitate Ivs., edible, oblong, indehis- 

 cent berries and an indefinite number of ovules. It dif-
