This subspecies is characterized by its small, delicate leaves and distinctive bark patterns. It thrives in cool, moist environments and is often found in mountainous regions. Due to its limited distribution, it is considered a rare and ecologically significant plant. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect this unique species from habitat loss and climate change.
