Description: A distinct medium to large sized shrub with sturdy grey-brown branches, clothed in ovate-oblong foetid leaves with distinct parallel impressed venation above to 15cm long. Bearing small white flowers with long stamen borne April-May in large panicles, resulting in panicles of ellipsoid red persistent fruit ageing black. This accession dates back to my first visit to Japan in 1995 with Dan Hinkley, when we were guests of Tsukuba B.G., part of Tokyo University, who I have had the privilege of working with over the years. They gave us this and many other seed. Easily grown in most types of drained fertile soils in either sun or partly shade.
