Narrative
Full name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Cephalotaxus harringtonia 'Duke Gardens'. Reference: x12/24/65 RHF to SGM x from "The Bulletin of the American Association of Botanical Gardens and Arboreta" vol.13, No.3 p.73, 1979. x12/24/65 HH to HTS You will receive from me in due course 2 plants of a spreading form of a Cephalotaxus which I assume to be fortunei. These are rooted cuttings from a sport on an old plant in these gardens. I would appreciate it it you would merely keep it under observation until we can decide here if it is worth naming and formally introducing.
