Not cap parvifolium

[Devabriel 95]

I'm trying to grow it this year but was wondering if any here grown it already and what it ended up looking to be? Mine are still infants but looks to be doing fine atleast.

I grew it some years ago; I confirm that it's a common C.baccatum var baccatum.

Here some photos (2010)

 

 

 

 

You can verify that your seedlings are NOT C.parvifolium already at the first branching ...

... because C.parvifolium never branches!  

(It has monopodial growth)

 

Here info about the true one:

Thanks, gonna have a look. 

Figureed it wouldn't be a true parvifolium, but nice to now what it is.

The similar species C.caatingae is even better!

In the database, the description of C.Parvifolium says:

"non ramifica, ma emette rami secondari laterali".

 

Does "non ramifica" mean "doesn't bifurcate" ?

Yes.

It's better to modify "non ramifica" with "non biforca"

 

Here you can see well the difference:

Anche questa immagine rende bene l'idea:
