Hi All,
Please let me correct this: It is H. kiyosumiensis not H. kyosumiensis. The
ICNCP does not allow the use of a descriptive (adjectival) name as the sole
cultivar name, hence H. kiyosumiensis 'Nakafu' is illegitimate per article
19D.1. of the ICNCP. The ICNCP article 19.4 does allow a cultivar name in
its Japanese form by adding the Japanese vernacular species name so the
correct name is H. 'Nakafu Kiyosumi' which is also the vernacular Japanese
name. H. 'Busen' could be used as a synonym and is permissible by the ICNCP
but was apparently withdrawn. George
