Rubus palmatus, Thunb. Spreading, often slender-stemmed plant growing 4-5 ft. tall, with many short, but stout nearly straight spines: lvs. rather small, 2-3 in. long as a rule, narrow-ovate-acuminate or sometimes nearly triangular-ovate-acuminate, rather deeply 3—5-lobed and the middle lobe long and acuminate, the margins very sharp-serrate: fls. white, nearly or quite 3/4in. across, with broadly ovate petals: fr. small (red?), of little value. China, Japan. B.M.7801.—Sparingly intro. as an ornamental plant, but little known here. The Mayberry, intro. by Luther Burbank, is said to be a hybrid between this species and the Cuthbert raspberry (R. strigosus). The Mayberry is described as producing a large yellow edible berry, ripening in advance of the strawberry. R. palmatus is doubtfully referable to R. microphyllus, Linn. f.
