Here's another significant point of
confusion some encounter in using
the older Checklists:
Before 1950, the first date given =
was the date of introduction (or N. =
if not introduced) and the second
one (preceded by R.) was the date
of registration. It was not uncommon
for a cultivar to be introduced before
it was registered.
Since 1950, the first date (preceded
by R.) is the registration date and =
the second, if any, is the date of
introduction.
