#504 They called me Genista canariensis, also known as Cytisus hillebrandtii, Genista philippii, Genista hillebrandii, Teline hillebrandii, and Cytisus philippii. I pay homage to the male botanists Hillebrandt (I couldn’t find his records), Philipp (I couldn’t find his records), and William (Wilhelm) Hillebrand, or William Francis Hillebrand. They first catalogued me in 1753.
