Narrative
See distribution write-up in library notebook. Prunus incisa x Prunus campanulata. "Prunus x incam 'Okame' was introduced into this country in 1947 by the Morris Arboretum, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, from the original plant growing at Captain Collingwood Ingram's home, The Grange, Benenden, Cranbrook, England. National Arboretum accession 18355-c traces back to this original introduction by way of the University of Washington Arboretum, Seattle, Washington." A 1994 card note on the back of the 18355-C card indicated that the plant in the hemlock area of Gotelli (bed 60) was the original tree; this hasn't been verified elsewhere.
