Narrative
Full name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Buxus microphylla. This plant is clearly not Buxus californica, syn. for Simmondsia chinensis -- it might be proper to call it B. 'California', but the name Buxus california is invalid. The USNA SSR study showed this to belong in a group of triploid B. microphylla var. japonica, and flow cytometry determined it as triploid, so it is B. microphylla, probably var. japonica (as far as that taxon is valid.) -SBL
