Narrative
"This plant is already grown in California and Florida to a limited extent, but so far as we know, its value as a hedge plant is not realized in those states. In Bahia is one of the commonest hedges, and seems to be admirably adapted to this use. The fruit can be used for ices, jams and preserves. " B.P.I. Inventories 38-28
