Narrative
Very dwarf seedling discovered in the Gotelli Collection in the north end of bed 5 (GOT-05) about 2016 by George Waters; dug and held in a container ever since. Growth is very slow and the plant resembles a natural bonsai without any pruning or training, but it has never flowered, according to George. It is presumed to be of hybrid origin, likely derived from one or more of the various USNA cultivars growing in the collection. Of those, 'Miami' is closest to where the seedling appeared, but the pollen and seeds can travel and the background is very uncertain.
