Still under patent. Protection ends June 29, 2036.
Twenty years from the filing date would end on October 21, 2041, but this patent ends 1,940 days earlier — a terminal disclaimer gives term back. A source that calculates twenty years from filing would tell you this plant is still protected when it is already free.
