Preserved earlier research
These earlier notes have not been reconciled with every catalog field. Edit the full description to replace this section with a current account.
The originator’s listing identifies this selection but does not specify its discovery locality. The nursery’s address alone is insufficient to assign a geographic origin.
Preserved earlier research. The updated workbook fields above may differ; consult the cited sources when reports conflict.
This is a collection record based on the existing nursery catalog. Independent research and a complete historical review are still pending.
