Little shiny inedible black fruit.
This variety was originated by me by rooting of cuttings from a plant I found in a cultivated lot at 807 8th Ave. S.W. in Largo, Fla.
Subsequent to discovery of the new variety I successfully asexually reproduced it in my greenhouse located at Springdale Nursery, Inc., 11700 S.W. 121st Ave., Dunnellon, Fla. 32630 by rooting of cuttings. The reproductions have run true in all respects.

The color photograph illustrates the variety, including the distinguishing foliage and normal fruit.
