Corylopsis multiflora Hance

Modern name

Corylopsis multiflora Hance

Synonyms

C. wilsonii Hemsl.

See C. wilsonii, page 721. This species was introduced by Wilson to Veitch’s Coombe Wood nursery in 1900, but it is doubtful whether it ever spread into gardens, nor has the species so far been introduced under its earlier and correct name. The key character of C. multiflora is the very small calyx.

Genus

Corylopsis

Modern name

Some names used by Bean have now been superseded and are no longer familiar. To ensure that all plants can be easily found, under any name, we have cross-referenced to The Plant List, a collaboration between RBG Kew, Missouri Botanical Gardens and other organisations, which aims to provide a currently accepted name for any plant. Not all taxonomists will agree with all Plant List nomenclature, but it provides a baseline to compare names. For each species above, clicking on the Modern Name will link to the entry for that name on The Plant List website.
