Sparmannia africana, Linn. A large shrub or tree, 10-20 ft. high: lvs. cordate-acuminate, 5-7-angled, unequally toothed, 5-6 in. long, 7-9-ribbed below: fls. white, on many-fld, peduncles: caps. 5-celled. S. Afr. B.M. 516. G.M. 37: 233. R.H. 1858, p. 105. Gn. 45:528; 76, p. 192. G. 22: 689; 27:195. Gn.W. 22: suppl. March 25. G.W. 5, p. 566.—A useful greenhouse plant. Var. flore-pleno, Hort., is also grown. G.C. II. 19:477.—S. africana is not common in S. Calif., but is highly esteemed. One specimen, 40 years old, is 12 ft. high and 16 ft. through, and consists of about 50 trunks 1/2 – 4 in. diam. It is literally covered with snowballs of 4 in. diam., the blooms being so heavy that the ends of the branches touch the ground, necessitating severe pruning as soon as blooms were past beauty. No viburnum, hydrangea, or other shrub can compare with it at its blooming season. During the remainder of the year it has the appearance of a clump of basswood suckers, the lvs. being nearly identical in appearance with those of the basswood. It is therefore a dense mass of broad lvs. and looks well anywhere and at any time. This is one of the finest white-fld, shrubs or trees in cult. The double variety is not so desirable as the single.
