different between yaupon vs yapon
yaupon
English
Alternative forms
- yapan, yopon, youpon, yupon (less common)
- yawpan, yaupan (largely obsolete)
Etymology
From a Catawba word, most likely yap, yop, y? (“tree”), with the second element being either a diminutive suffix or p? (“leaf”) (resulting in the compound y?p?); alternatively, perhaps directly from a longer form of the word for leaf, 'yap'hâ.
Noun
yaupon (countable and uncountable, plural yaupons)
- The yaupon holly, Ilex vomitoria, an evergreen holly shrub with white flowers and red or yellow berries, found in the south-eastern United States.
- 2002, Connie C. Barlow, The Ghosts of Evolution: Nonsensical Fruit, Missing Partners, and Other Ecological Anachronisms
- Yaupon is evergreen like the American holly and the familiar hollies of Christmas decorations, but the leaves of yaupon are small and smooth-edged rather than prickly. Easy to chew and blandly tasty, they would not stand out in a tossed salad.
- 2002, Connie C. Barlow, The Ghosts of Evolution: Nonsensical Fruit, Missing Partners, and Other Ecological Anachronisms
- A tea-like drink, "black drink", brewed from the leaves of this holly (or, sometimes, Ilex cassine).
