Narrative
Full name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Camellia japonica. From cuttings of NA 79387-H, propagated in 2011 under the former assumed identity of Camellia japonica x Franklinia alatamaha, now thought to be proven incorrect. Notes from parent accession, NA 79387: "Rare, original plant, 40 years old. [According to Hembree et al. 2019, Cytogenetics, Ploidy, and Genome Sizes of Camellia and Related Genera, for this accession the mean holoploid/2C genome size determined by fluorochrome staining using propidium iodide to be 5.94 +/- 0.51 pg. That result is consistent with pure Camellia japonica background and inconsistent with Franklinia alatamaha hybridization, so this accession was demonstrated to be merely C. japonica. See HortScience 54(7) 1124-1142, July 2019 for details.]"
