Adenostoma (aden, gland, sloma, mouth; calyx with five glands at the mouth). Rosaceae. Ornamental woody plants, cultivated chiefly for their handsome white flowers.
  
'''''Adenostoma''''' is a genus of shrubs containing only two species: ''[[Adenostoma fasciculatum]]'' (Commonly known as [[Chamise]]), and ''[[Adenostoma sparsifolium]]'' (Red shank). Both are native to coastal [[California]] and [[Baja California]], while ''A. fasciculatum'' is also native to California's [[Sierra Nevada (U.S.)|Sierra Nevada]] mountains.<ref name=Jepson1993>Jepson Manual, University of California, 1993 [http://ucjeps.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/get_JM_treatment.pl?6677,6681,6683]</ref>
+
Evergreen, somewhat resinous shrubs, rarely small trees: lvs. linear, small: fls. white, about 1-5 in. broad, in terminal panicles; calyx-tube obconical, with 5 short teeth and 5 glands at the mouth; petals 5, stamens 10-15; pistil 1, with the lateral style strongly curved above the base: fr. a small achene, inclosed in the persistent calyx-tube.—Two species in Calif.
  
Both species in this genus feature stiff, linear leaves arranged alternately or in clusters along stems with shredding bark. Flowers form on a [[panicle]], are cream to white and, as in all members of the [[Rosaceae|rose family]], are [[hypanthium]]s.<ref name=Jepson1993 />
+
The adenostomas are heath-like evergreen shrubs; very handsome when in full bloom. They may be cult. in temperate regions in a sunny position and well- drained soil. A. fasciculatum stands many degrees of frost. Prop, is by seeds and greenwood cuttings in spring.{{SCH}}

Adenostoma (aden, gland, sloma, mouth; calyx with five glands at the mouth). Rosaceae. Ornamental woody plants, cultivated chiefly for their handsome white flowers.

Evergreen, somewhat resinous shrubs, rarely small trees: lvs. linear, small: fls. white, about 1-5 in. broad, in terminal panicles; calyx-tube obconical, with 5 short teeth and 5 glands at the mouth; petals 5, stamens 10-15; pistil 1, with the lateral style strongly curved above the base: fr. a small achene, inclosed in the persistent calyx-tube.—Two species in Calif.

The adenostomas are heath-like evergreen shrubs; very handsome when in full bloom. They may be cult. in temperate regions in a sunny position and well- drained soil. A. fasciculatum stands many degrees of frost. Prop, is by seeds and greenwood cuttings in spring.CH
