- Research notes
- Supplier reports psyllid resistance; heavy hedge pruning can remove flowers/fruit. Seasons vary with climate, location, cultivar and plant maturity. Native states refer to the parent species, or both parent species for the garden hybrid; the cultivated selection has no separate wild range. Flower descriptions use species-level information where cultivar-specific details are unavailable.
