20. The perennial-leaved Arbutus, or Uva Urji r with red fruit (d). 



In the Duke of Portland'?, wood, near Hexham, plentifully. I 

 never met with it any where elfe, except at little Wancyhoufe-crz.g, 

 where I met with one very fine plant of it in a turf-foil among 

 the rocks. It very muc.li refernbles the ever-green Q\ perennlal- 

 leaved Wortle-berry with red fruit. The ftalks are longer, and of 

 a more firm texture, part procumbent, and part upright, accord- 

 ing to their age and ftrength, from a foot to two feet in length. 

 The leaves are alfo longer, gradually expanding to an ovated 

 form. The flowers are in pendulous clufters on the fummits of 

 the branches. They are campaniform ; the brims reflex and ob- 

 tufe ; the antheras bicorneous ; the fruit round and glofly, of an 

 infipid tafte. The calyx is of a purple colour divided into five 

 parts.
