Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Hymenanthera(from the Greek for membrane and anther, in allusion to the anthers being terminated by a membrane). Syn. Solenantha. Violaceae. Stiff shrubs or small trees: lvs. alternate or sometimes fascicled, entire or toothed, with small fugacious stipules: fls. small, axillary or on the naked branches below the lvs., regular, hermaphrodite or unisexual: fr. a small sub- globose berry; seeds 2, rarely 3-4.—About half a dozen species from New Zeal., Austral., Tasmania and Norfolk Isls. H. crassifolia, Hook, f., is offered abroad. A low, rigid, much-branched shrub 2-4 ft. high: bark white, furrowed: lvs. very thick and coriaceous, linear- spathulate, entire, sinuate or toothed: fls. small, solitary or few together, axillary: berry white or purplish, 1/6 – ¼ in. diam. New Zeal. Gn. 75, p. 568.—A variable species. Should be grown in a warm, sunny place as a rock-garden plant. Prop, by seeds, cuttings or layers in summer. Good for amateurs on account of the early fls., March to April, and particularly the ornamental berries, which retain their characters a long time. In cold climates needs whiter protecton; hardy in south of England. L H. B.
