Sideroxylon (Greek, iron and wood, referring to the hardness of the wood). Sapotaceae. Trees and shrubs, with simple lvs. and small fls. in axillary clusters: fls. 5-merous or rarely 6-merous; calyx-lobes roundish or ovate, usually obtuse, nearly equal; corolla more or less bell-shaped; stamens attached to the tube at the base of the lobes and opposite to them; staminodia scale-like or petaloid; ovary usually 5-loculed: berry ovoid or globose.—About 110 species, mainly tropical, a few extra-tropical. S. Afr., Austral., and New Zeal.

		+	Bumelia (ancient Greek name for an ash-tree). Sapotaceae. Buckthorn ; also Ironwood. Woody plants sometimes cultivated in botanical collections, but without particular ornamental qualities.
		+
		+	Small trees or shrubs with milky or gummy sap and very hard wood: branches usually spiny: Lvs. alternate, entire, short-petioled: fls. mostly perfect in axillary clusters, long-pedicelled; calyx 5-lobed, persistent; corolla campanulate, 5-lobed; lobes longer than tube with a small appendage on each side; stamens 5, adnate to the corolla, and 5 petal-like staminodes; ovary 5- celled, pubescent: fr. a 1-seeded drupe.—About 20 species from the southern states to Brazil.
		+
		+	These are evergreen or deciduous small trees or shrubs, usually spiny, with generally obovate to oblong leaves and inconspicuous white flowers on axillary clusters followed by black subglobose to oblong-ovoid drupes. None of the species is of much horticultural value, but as most of them grow naturally on dry, rocky or sandy soil, they may be used sometimes with advantage for planting in similar situations. The hardiest are B. lanuginosa and B. lycioides, which have proved hardy in sheltered positions at the Arnold Arboretum. Propagation is by seeds.
		+
		+	B. angustlfolia, Nutt. Shrub or small tree, to 25 ft.: Lvs. persist- ent, obovate to oblanceolate, glabrous, 1-1 H in. long.; fr. oblong. Fla. 8.8.5:249.—B. lycioides, Gaertn. Shrub or small tree, to 25 ft.: Lvs. deciduous, elliptic to oblong or oblanceolate, acute, glabrous, 1' i-4 in. long: fr. ovoid. Va. to III.. Fla. and Texas. S.8. 5:248.—B. tenaz, Willd. Shrub or small tree, to 30 ft.: Lvs. obovate to oblanceolate, pubescent beneath, 1-3 in. long: fr. oblong. N, C. to Fla. S.S. 5:246.
