DistributionThere are only 4 specimens at SERNEC portal. One from Cumberland County was from a cultivated plant; and 2 from Mecklenburg County are misidentified japonicum and lucidum. The Orange County specimen was collected in 1966 from "between Coker Hall and Memorial Hospital" on the UNC campus. Planted? Persisting? Escaped? Until a more convincing specimen comes along, it may be best to delete this species from the NC flora.
