 (Don's J ////., "ii. j). :i2.) A deciduous shrub, with 

 the habit of a low tree; a native of the A/ores, on 

 the mountains of St. Michael. Introduced in 1778. 

 It flowers in Julv, and the berries which succeed 

 them are either red or black, both colours appearing 

 on the same plant. The leaves are larger than those 

 of any other species; and the whole plant is remark- 

 able for its robust appearance, and the conspicuous" 1 

 opp<ite nerves, which proceed from the middle of 

 tin' leaves. It deserves a place in every collection. 

 There is a tree of it at Syon loft, hiiih. In London, 

 plants are from l.v. to l.v. (K/. each. At Bollwyller, 

 1 franc ami 50 cents ; ami at New York, jO cents.
