Jim:

"Black Forrest" is a trademark name registered by the company who=markets
the plant.  The trademark can be used on any number of plants and cannot =be
attached only to this calla.  The only correct cultivar name is Z.
'Schwarzalder'.  The trademark symbol is illegally used to accompany the
cultivar name...a common problem in our industry.
