Stem rather round, bearing stout recurved prickles, compressed at the base. Leaflets 3—5, pinnately cut, sharply serrate, a little downy beneath. Flowers in loose panicles, white or rose-coloured. Sepals lanceolate, leafy at the tip, tomentose, prickled, reflexed. Petals wedge-shaped, 3-lobed at the tip. Carpels roundish, dark-coloured. (ZJec. Prod.) A laige and handsome bramble. Stems 4 ft. to 10 ft. Flowers white, or rose-coloured ; June to Sep- tember. Fruit black; ripe in August. Naked young wood of a fine purple colour. The appearance of this plant is that of the common bramble, except in the leaflets, which, from their being deeply cut, are strilcingly different. Where it was fii-st found is unknown ; but it is, in all probability, only a variety of the common bramble, analogous to the cut- leaved variety of the elder (^ambucus nigra laciniata.) H. S. sk 7.
