Narrative
A now many-stemmed, shrubby specimen is growing just east of the Azalea Valley overlook below Azalea Road; I have not been able to locate any records related to it. I believe that there was another specimen growing near the Prunus 'Fudanzakura' (NA 56415-H1) located well to the east of this area, and that could have been the same accession, but it is now invislbe due to vine growth and could be dead.
