Peraphyllum (from Greek, pera, excessively, and phyllon; alluding to the crowded lvs.). Rosaceae, sub-fam. Pomeae. A much-branched rigid shrub, with deciduous alternate rather small and narrow partly fascicled lvs., white fls. similar to apple-blossoms in few-fld. upright umbels appearing with the lvs., and berry-like edible fr. Hardy as far north as Mass., but seems to possess only little ornamental value. It is of very slow growth and blooms only when rather old. It grows in well-drained soil and in sunny position, and is best suited to be planted on rocky slopes of southern aspect. Prop, by seeds and layers and by grafting on amelanchier or crataegus. It is closely allied to Amelanchier, but distinguished by its nearly umbellate fls., cylindric calyx-tube, the perfectly inferior ovary, and also by its narrow lvs. The only species is P. ramosissimum, Nutt., a rigid shrub, 2-6 ft. high: lvs. oblong to oblanceolate, almost sessile, entire or sparingly serrulate, silky pubescent when young, 3/4-2 in. long: fls. in few-fld. erect umbel-like racemes, white or slightly tinged pink, with rose-colored disk,3/4in. across; petals obovate, spreading; styles 2-3, free; ovary 2- or incompletely 4-celled: fr. pendulous, globose, yellow with brownish cheek, about 1/2 in. across. May. Ore. to Calif, and Colo. CH
