Vaccinium arboreum, Marsh. Farkleberry. Sparkle-Berry. Spreading shrub or small tree, 6-25 ft. high, with glabrous or somewhat pubescent branchlets: lvs. 1-2 in. long, evergreen in the S., somewhat coriaceous, smooth and shining above, paler and sometimes pubescent beneath, obovate to oval, acute or obtuse, entire or obscurely denticulate: fls. profuse, axillary, and leafy-racemose, pendulous, articulated with the slender pedicel; corolla open-campanulate, 5-lobed, white; stamens included: berry small, globose, black, rather astringent, inedible. Sandy soil along river banks, Fla. and Texas to N. C. and Ill. L.B.C. 19:1885. B.M. 1607 (as V. diffusum). B.B. 2:580.—"It forms an irregular shrub too diffuse and straggling to be of use except in masses, for which purpose it is useful at the South."
