notes: label: Notes
content: Presumably original material but type status of this specimen uncertain. Protologue cites collection (Rose & Russell 19728) and has photo of "type plant" but uncertain which specimens of wild and/or cultivated material should be considered type(s). This specimen possibly the holotype, as it appears to be the same plant illustrated with photograph of "type plant".
