 staphylr, a bunch ; flowers in clusters. 

 Nat. ord., Bladder-Nuts [Staphyleacese]. 

 Linn., b-Pentandria 3-Trigynia.} 



Hardy, white - flowered, deciduous shrubs. 

 Seeds sown when ripe, remaining a year or more 

 in the soil; cuttings in September; layers and 

 suckers ; any light soil. Occidentals requires a 

 hothouse, but it scarcely deserves one; pinna'tit 

 is singular from its large bladder-capsules.
