Ochna (old Greek name for a wild pear, which some of these plants were thought to resemble in foliage). Ochnaceae. Glasshouse woody plants, little grown for the odd showy bloom and fruit. Ochna is a genus of about 25-30 species of trees and shrubs of Trop. Asia and Afr., and a few in S. Afr.: Lvs. deciduous, alternate, minutely serrate, leathery, shining: fls. yellow, rarely greenish, jointed to the pedicels; sepals 5, colored, imbricate, persistent; petals 5-10; stamens indefinite; anthers opening longitudinally or by pore-like slits; ovary deeply 3-10-lobed, the lobes 1-celled, 1-ovuled. and seated around a central disk or receptacle and becoming sessile drupes, styles connate. O. atropurpurea, DC., of the Cape, may occur now and then: shrub, 4-5 ft., with ovate denticulate Lvs.: calyx dark purple, petals yellow; fls. on 1-fld. stalks. J.F. 1:29.
