Cercocarpus parvifolius, Nutt. Bushy tree, to 25 ft.: lvs. dull green and pubescent above, pubescent or tomentose beneath, ½-1½ in. long, with 4-5 pairs of veins: style 2-4 in. long. From Neb. and Ore. to Low. Calif. and. W. Texas. S.S. 4:166. H.I. 4:323.—D. M. Andrews, of Colo., who handles this shrub, writes of it as follows: "Mountain mahogany, 6 feet. A nearly evergreen rosaceous shrub of peculiar and attractive habit of growth. Fls. white, early, followed by the long, plumose achenes, which are 3-5 in. long, strangely curled and twisted, arranged above and on each side of the slender branches, so that at a little distance they have an appearance suggestive of ostrich plumes. Easily transplanted, and thrives anywhere." CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
