Narrative
Full name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Pittosporum brevicalyx 'Golden Temple'. Longwood Gardens obtained this cultivar from Cistus Nursery on April 18, 2005. Reportedly, it did not bloom in a container in their east conservatory and is slated for removal. Cistus Nursery's web site shows a photo of this cultivar at the nursery in April 2010 with the associated number "UCSC 96-187"; however, it appears this is really Quarryhill Botanical Garden number 1996.187, listed in their database as Pittosporum brevicalyx with collection number SAS 26B. This accession essentially derives from NA 49386 (SABE 1980 collection number TRD 37A and presumably SAS 26B as well), two seedlings of which were distributed under number TRD 37A to Saratoga Horticultural Research Foundation by USNA in 1982; an additional seedling was evidently sent that year by the Arnold Arboretum from the same collection under number SAS 26B (associated with their accession number 1567-80). See Holm, Ed. A New Pittosporum. _Pacific Horticulture_ 61(1), January 2000, and the Quarryhill Botanical Garden's Database of Asian Plants in Cultivation. The latter database has long listed an accession of Pittosporum brevicalyx cv. Golden Temple at USNA with collection number TRD 37A, but the cultivar has never been in our collections prior to this accession, so its presence in the database is a mystery.
