  an 
  introduced 
  shrub. 
  It 
  is 
  sometimes 
  culti- 
  

   vated 
  but 
  escapes 
  from 
  cultivation 
  and 
  grows 
  wild.

  It 
  is 
  closely 
  related 
  to 
  E. 
  grayanum 
  from 
  which 
  it 
  may 
  be 
  

  

  separated 
  by 
  its 
  darker 
  color, 
  more 
  narrow 
  gills 
  and 
  different

  This 
  decumbent 
  or 
  trailing 
  shrub 
  was 
  reported 
  by 
  Dr 
  Torrey 
  to 
  

   belong 
  to 
  our 
  flora, 
  but 
  he 
  considered 
  it 
  a 
  mere 
  variety 
  of 
  

   Euonymus 
  americanus. 
  It 
  is 
  now 
  regarded 
  as 
  a 
  dis- 
  

   tinct 
  species 
  differing 
  from 
  the 
  strawberry 
  bush 
  in 
  its 
  smaller 
  

   flowers, 
  obtuse 
  and 
  more 
  finely 
  crenulate 
  leaves, 
  earlier 
  time 
  of 
  

   flowering 
  and 
  decumbent 
  or 
  trailing 
  mode 
  of 
  growth.

  This

  is 
  much 
  like

   its 
  spores 
  have 
  but 
  three 
  septa.
