Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Rubus xanthocarpus, Bur. & Franch. (R. Potaninii, Regel). Trailing, the sts. dying back every year, the sts. pilose and weak-spiny: lvs. pinnately 3-foliolate, the lfts. ovate, acute or obtuse, strongly and unequally dentate, the terminal one twice larger than the others: fls. solitary or twin in the axils of the upper lvs., the peduncle and calyx weak-prickly, the petals white: fr. large, ovate, bright yellow, fragrant, and palatable, the calyx persistent. China; discovered in 1885 in the Province of Kansu, 40° north latitude, and later found in provinces Szechuan and Yunnan.—Intro. into the U.S. in 1898 by the Dept. of Agric. through N. E. Hansen, to be tried for its edible raspberry-like fr. It is said to provide a good cover; fairly hardy in Minn; it appears not to have found favor in this country and its value is doubtful.
