Since the other photo taken at this location appeared incorrect to me (see comment under other photo), I expected that this one is also an R. spinosissima form or hybrid, as well. However, I now think it may just be atypical growth from graft union problems and/or nutrient deficiency. (I've retracted the accuracy mark).

This garden has its specimen plants clearly labeled. It is my practice to photograph the label as 'notes' Since 2002 I have put the label photo on HMF.

I'm not quite sure what you mean (I didn't see the label photo here), but I'm not questioning that the plant you photographed was labeled 'Schneezwerg' by the garden--I'm sure it was. What I'm saying is that the plant itself is not 'Schneezwerg', so it wasn't correctly labeled by the garden, and therefore the photo does not depict 'Schneezwerg'.

Now that I look at it again, it appears that the specimen is grafted high, and may just be growing strangely for the variety, and showing some nutrient deficiency. It's probably not conclusive, and could be 'Schneezwerg' after all, looking rather atypical for the clone. I should have considered that before marking the image.
