常棣 and 唐棣 are both tree names. 常棣 fruit is round like cherries with fine hairs, quite sour, ripening in early summer. Northerners call it 棠李子. 唐棣 is the same as 郁李, often growing on field ridges. Five to six feet tall. Fruits in summer, resembling cherries, purple-red in color, sour in taste. | Interchangeable with 弟. From "Book of Odes Preface": "Changdi is for feasting brothers." Hence colloquially borrowed for disciples.
