ends of the branches; flowers racemed, small, of a reddish colour, growing 
from the branches; appear in May; fruit round, size of a Gooseberry; it has 
an acid flavour, and is sometimes sold in the Bazar, though no great use 
appears to be made of it.

armed, Perhaps it may be his P. virosus.

A shrub; leaves alternate, bifarious, flower bearing;—berry size of a pea, 
surrounded by the enlarged, coloured. calyx. 
Malabar and Worlee hills; Salsette &c. Roxburgh says, it grows to be a 
large tree; here it is a mere shrub;—flowering period, the rains.—It is a very 
curious looking plant when covered with fruit growing on the leaves. 
Perhaps this is different from Roxburgh’s plant.
