"Artificial" hybrid

edit

The article currently has a sourced claim that this is an artificial hybrid. Plants of the World doesn't make any claim that I can see that there was a deliberate breeding program to produce this hybrid, and it seems to have arisen by accident, so would not qualify as artificial in the sense of artificial plant breeding. The citation for the name in IPNI is × Rhaphiobotrya Coombes, Plantsman n.s., 7(3): 164 (2008). That journal is now called The Plant Review and doesn't seem to be available where I am. Does anyone else have access to back issues of that journal? Sminthopsis84 (talk) 01:32, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
