Tapiscia (anagram of Pistacia, to which it bears a strong resemblance, though not closely related). Staphyleaceae. An ornamental deciduous tree from China with large alternate odd-pinnate lvs., deciduous stipules and with small yellow fragrant fls. in axillary panicles: calyx tubular-campanulate, 5-lobed; petals 5, spatulate-obovate, little longer than the calyx; stamens 5, exserted; style slender, longer than stamens; ovary superior: fr. a 1-seeded ovoid drupe. It is as yet little known in cult., but probably can be grown successfully in the S. only; it may be recommended chiefly for its bold pinnate foliage and the honey-scented fls. Prop. can probably be effected by cuttings besides by intro. seeds. T. sinensis, Oliver. Small tree, to 30 ft., occasionally to 90 ft.: lfts. 5-7, ovate to ovate-oblong, acuminate, cordate at the base, serrulate, glaucescent and nearly glabrous beneath, 3-5 in. long: panicles broad, 2-3 in. long: fls. 1/12 in. long, yellow, fragrant: fr. ovoid, black, 1/2 in. long.
