hackberry, nettle treenoun
any of various trees of the genus Celtis having inconspicuous flowers and small berrylike fruits
Samuel Johnson's Dictionary
Lote treenoun
or nettle tree. The leaves of the lote tree are like those of the nettle; the flowers consist of five leaves, expanded in form of a rose, containing many short stamina in the bosom: the fruit, which is a roundish berry, grows single in the bosom of its leaves. The fruit of this tree is not so tempting to us, as it was to the companions of Ulysses: the wood is durable, and used to make pipes for wind instruments: the root is proper for hafts of knives, and was highly esteemed by the Romans for its beauty and use. Philip Miller
Etymology: Celtis.
