{{Inc|
Pyurs platycarpa, Bailey (Malus platycarpa, Rehd.). Small tree, to
20 ft., with spreading unarmed branches, young growths thin-tomentose
but becoming glabrous: lvs. ovate to elliptic, rounded at base, the
apex rounded but with short acute point, sharply and mostly doubly
serrate, those on vigorous shoots broad-ovate and usually with several
pairs of very broad triangular lobes: fls. 3-6 in raceme-like umbels,
about 1/2in- diam., on glabrous pedicels 1-1 1/2 in. long; calyx-tube
obconic and glabrous, the lobes or sepals lanceolate-acuminate and
longer than the tube and densely tomentose within though glabrous
without; petals orbicular-ovate, usually dentate; styles 5, villous
below the middle and connate for one-third their- length: fr.
depressed- globose with deep depressions at both ends, broader than
long (2 in. diam.), with persistent calyx, sometimes used for
preserves. N. C. to Ga. in fertile bottoms. S.T.S. 2:189.—Mostly
closely related to P. coronaria, but easily distinguished from this as
well as from other species by the broad and large lvs. which are
rounded and abruptly acuminate at apex, and never lobed, and by its
very large fr.
Var. Hoopesii, Bailey (Malus coronaria var. Hoppesii, Rehd. M.
platycarpa var. Hoppesii, Rehd.). Differs in pubescent calyx, oval to
elliptic lvs. only slightly or not at all lobed, and by the larger fr.
Known only in cult.
