 China. Fl. C. S. Juniper berries, known to secrete sugar, as well as 

 an essential oil, have long been noted for their diuretic properties, but 

 are as famous for their employment in the manufacture of gin. They 

 were formerly much employed in Europe, and at the present day may 

 be bought in Indian bazars under the names of ubhul and hoober, 

 being considered diuretic and emenagogue. They are now brought 

 from the Himalayas, but were formerly from Kabul. {Royle.)
