Remarks
Bentham (p. 307; 1849) treated an unnamed variety (1706(282). Cercis siliquastrum, Linn. var.), provided a brief description, and distinguished the Californian taxon from the European C. siliquastrum (protologue: Cercis siliquastrum, Linn. var. floribus paullo minoribus, cœterum speciei Europœœ omnino conformis et foliis et floribus et fructu; a C. canadensi certe diversa.—Frutex orgyalis, in montibus Sacramento.). On p. 361, he mentioned: n. 1706. Cercis californica, Torr., a C. siliquastro distincta videtur.
