Elaeagnus umbellata var. rotundifolia
is a variety of the original species,
Elaeagnus umbellata, which inhabits rocky coastal areas or sandy
beaches; the main difference lies in the shape of the leaves. The
leaves of this variety, measuring 3-7cm in length and 2-4cm in
width, are orbicular-ovate to oval, more expansive than the original
species, thicker, and with scaly hairs being denser. The fruit
ripens from September to November, and the bloom time is from April
to June. |
