PUBLIC DOMAIN

Patent expired September 14, 2018. This plant is in the public domain — anyone may propagate and sell it.

Twenty years from the filing date would end on June 16, 2020, but this patent ends 641 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.
