A general term for the genus Sharinto in the family Rosaceae (APG classification: Rosaceae). Evergreen or deciduous shrubs, occasionally small trees. There are about 50 species in Europe, North Africa, and Asia, with many found in western China and the Himalayas. There are no native species in Japan, but many species have been imported. [Yoshio Kobayashi January 21, 2020] kindsC. franchetii Bois, native to western China and Tibet, is also known as Franchet's Sharintou. Its leaves are ovate, 2.5-3 cm long, yellowish-white on the underside, and densely covered with short hairs. Its flowers are small and white. Its fruits are pear-shaped, about 7 mm in diameter, and ripen red in October. C. horizontalis Decne., native to western China, has horizontally spreading branches and many branches. Its leaves are broadly elliptical, 0.5-1.5 cm long. It produces 1-2 pale pink florets in June, and the fruits, about 5 mm in diameter, ripen red in October. C. salicifolius Fr., native to western China, has oblong leaves, 3-8 cm long, grayish-white on the underside, and soft hairs. It produces many small white flowers in corymbs in June. The fruits are about 6 mm in diameter and ripen red. All of these were introduced to Japan in the early Showa period, but the Nepalese native C. rotundifolia Wall. var. lanata Schneid. was introduced in the early Meiji period. The leaves are broadly elliptical or broadly obovate, 8-12 mm long, and hairy on the underside. The flowers are white with pale pink centers. The fruits ripen red. It is cultivated as a garden tree or potted plant, and its flowers and fruits are appreciated. It is cold-resistant, easy to cultivate, and grows well in sunny, moist areas. It is propagated by seeds or cuttings. [Yoshio Kobayashi January 21, 2020] Source: Shogakukan Encyclopedia Nipponica About Encyclopedia Nipponica Information | Legend |
