A handsome growing bushy evergreen Shrub: branches 
spreading, very slightly angular, densely clothed with a short close 
rusty pubescence, so close and short that the hairs are scarcely 
perceptible. Leaves ovately lanceolate or oblong, acute, of a 
dark glossy green on the upper side, underneath clothed with a 
very short close-pressed white tomentum, the midrib clothed with 
longer and more loose pubescence, brown towards the base, 
nerves pinnately branched, also clothed with a short tomentum; 
margins slightly revolute, shortly undulate, veryrough, occasioned 
by small horny tubercles along the margins. Petioles clothed 
with a short rusty tomentum, about 5 times shorter than the 
leaves. Sézpules lanceolate, acute, soon turning brown and
