    According to 'People and Plants. The Harper Collection of Dwarf and Rare Conifers' (p. 94, © 2012 Michigan State University, White Pine Printers), this cultivar was introduced as Larix decidua 'Julian's Weeper', but there is evidence in the records of the originating nursery that it is really Larix kaempferi 'Julian's Weeper', and that "experts" (not identified in the book) agree. I haven't been able to trace an independent verification of this claim. I suppose DNA analysis could resolve this issue.
