Description: A distinct small to medium sized semi-evergreen species shrub, which we collected the seed of from the Boshi Pass on the island of Kyushu southern Japan in the autumn of 2006. Where we only encountered a single small shrub with small sharply serrated elliptic leaves 5cm long which were a reddish-bronze before falling in that cold enviroment. Still retaining the distinct flat cymes of elliptic and flattened red fruit which eventually ripen black, the result of the tubular white flowers born in summer. Best cultivated in part shade in not too exposed a position, in a humus rich drained fertile soil that retains moisture.
