Notes#

Selection. Mengshan Tea Farm, Sichuan Agricultural University and the provincial farm administration selected it during 1976–1988; Sichuan approved it in 1989. The clone is distinct from its variable seed population.

Use. The cultivar reference recommends green-tea production and reports persistent floral aroma in its assessed tea. This is a processing assessment, not a guarantee for every harvest.
