Orixa (Japanese name). Rutaceae. Deciduous shrub, with alternate petioled almost entire Lvs., and greenish inconspicuous dioecious fls. with 4 sepals and 4 minute petals, the staminate fls. in racemes, the pistillate fls. solitary: fr. consisting of 4 dehiscent pods, each containing 1 black subglobose seed. It has proved hardy in Mass., but has no decorative merit except its bright green foliage, which is not attacked by insects or fungi, and has a strong disagreeable odor like that of ptelea. Orixa seems to grow in almost any soil. Prop, by greenwood cuttings; also by layers and root- cuttings and by seeds. The only species is O. japonica, Thunb. (Celastrus Orixa, Sieb. & Zucc. Ilex Orixa, Spreng. Othera Orixa, Lam.). Fig. 2677. Shrub, to 8 ft., with spreading branches pubescent when young: Lvs. obovate to oblong, obtusely pointed, entire or finely crenulate, bright green above, finely pubescent beneath, translucently glandular-punctate, 2-4 in. long: fls. small, greenish: pods about ⅓ in. long, light greenish brown. April, May. Japan. Gt. 35:1232. I.T. 3:101.
