This remarkable cultivar[1] was developed in the early 20th century at the Berndt Nursery in Zirlau, Schweidnitz, Silesia. Berndt reported that, although stocked by only a few nurseries, it received praise at the 20th Century Exhibition in Breslau[2]. Until the discovery of this specimen in 2026, no other surviving examples are known. (Cadwallader, B.G., 2026).
