oblong-oval, obtuse at the tip, convex and very shiny; fr. black, 

 sometimes 3 in a cyme; cult, in Arnold Arb. (Acces. no. 20069) from a 

 plant sent from Japan in 1919 by E.H. Wilson as /. mariesii; distributed 

 by Arnold Arb. as /. mahesii and /. nummularia [this plant does not 

 represent cultivars MARIESII or NUMMULARIA], At the Arnold 

 Arb. it proved hardier than typical /. crenata and hardier than /. crenata 

 var. microphylla Maximowicz. Idem, Jour. Arnold Arb. 12(4):309, and 

 in the errata and addenda, 1931 - Rehder changed his f. bullata back to

 f. bullata. = CONVEXA, f. bullata Rehder, BULLATA CONVEXA of
