A woody vine, with deciduous 3-foliolate lvs. and dioecious, yellow campanulate fls. in pendulous racemes and with frs. consisting of berry-like bluish black ovoid carpels. Staminate fls. 6-merous; sepals petaloid; petals wanting; nectaries minute, suborbicular; stamens with short filaments and oblong anthers: fr. consisting of ovoid stipitate carpels each with 1 ovoid, glossy black seed. Differs from all members of the family by its numerous 1-ovuled carpels. One species in Cent. China. A handsome vigorous-growing vine with rather large foliage and fragrant yellow fls. appearing with the leaves. Probably not hardy N. Prop. is by seed and by layers or cuttings. S. cuneata, Rehd. & Wilson (Holboellia cuneata, Oliver, partly). Climbing, to 20 ft., glabrous: lvs. long-petioled; lfts. 3, the middle one stalked, rhombic to rhombic-obovate, 3-5 in. long, the lateral ones sessile, very unsymmetrical, ovate, slightly larger than the terminal one: staminate racemes 4-5 in. long; fls. nearly 1/2 in. long, slender-stalked, yellow, fragrant; sepals narrow-oblong; stamen much shorter; ripe carpels 1/3 in. long on a stalk of about equal length.
