Here the staminate form of this little shrub 
grows more freely than the pistillate, though both 
remain of a dwarf habit. The berries are bright 
purple, and are found along the stems of the 
branches. They coloured here for the first time 
in the spring of 1916. (Figured from Nymans in 
Botanical Magazine, tab. 8712.) 
*M. Urvillei. New Zealand. 
This shrub does not appear very hardy, though, 
with protection, it has survived two winters in the 
open, near a south wall. It was imported from 
New Zealand through Mr. Travers. The leaves are 
undulating, and, like the branches, are tinged with 
red. The whole plant has a compact, pyramidal 
growth.
