Aucuba japonica, Thunb. A stout shrub, 4-15 ft.: lvs. usually ovate, 3-8 in. long, remotely and coarsely dentate, obtusely acuminate, shining: petals obtusely acuminate: berries scarlet, rarely white or yellow, usually oblong. From Himalayas to Japan. B.M. 5512. I.H. 11:399. S.I.F. 2:59. F.S. 16:1609. F. 1865:65 — There are a great number of garden forms in cultivation, mostly with variegated leaves; the latter are more often cult, than the green forms. Handsome variegated forms are: Var. latimaculata, Kirchn.(var. aureo-maculata, Dombrain). Lvs. ovate-oblong with a large irregular yellow blotch in the middle and smaller yellow dots around it. P.M. 10:527. F.W. 1876:353. Var. variegata, Dombrain, not Regel (var. maculata, Regel, var. picta, Hort., var. punctata, Hort.). Gold Dust Tree. Fig. 439. Lvs. with numerous yellow spots. —The most commonly cult. form. B.M. 1197. F.M. 5:277. R.H. 1866:292. Var. limbata, Bull. Lvs. large, coarsely dentate, with a greenish yellow margin. Var. bicolor, Regel. Lvs. with a large yellow blotch in the middle, ovate to ovate-oblong, remotely dentate. The following forms have green Lvs.: Var. angustifolia, Regel (var. salicifolia, Hort.). Lvs. narrowly oblong- lanceolate. Var. concolor, Regel (var. viridis, Hort.). Lvs. ovate-lanceolate or elliptic-ovate, remotely and coarsely serrate. Gt. 25:859. Var. dentate, Carr. (var. macrodonta, Hort.). Lvs. elliptic, coarsely and long-dentate. Var. macrophylla, Bull. Lvs. large and broad, remotely and slightly dentate. Var. ovata, Regel. Lvs. ovate, coarsely sinuately dentate, dark green, lustrous, Var. pygmaea, Regel. Low: Lvs. ovate-oblong, remotely and sharply dentate, bright green, dull. Differently colored frs. distinguish the following forms: Var. luteocarpa, Rehd. (A. luteocarpa, Dombrain) with yellow fr. F.M. 1872: 12. Var. leucocarpa, Matsum. & Nakai, with white fr.—A. cranifolia, once offered in American trade, is probably a form of A. japonica. To indicate whether a certain form is a staminate or a fruit-bearing plant, mascula or femina (foemina) is often added to the varietal name.
