This approaches very closely the form of G. japonica formerly 

 treated as a distinct species under the name of G. runcinata, and 

 it is certainly possible that this also is a variety of C. japonica, 

 as well as our G. longipes, for, witli the exception of stature and 

 foliage, there are no very obvious differences.
