Research notes

Collection page listed this product 'From $37.99' while the individual product page lists $40.00 USD -- flagged as a cross-page price discrepancy. Also note: the Kokoro product page separately states its cultivar is also 'Saemidori', creating overlap between two differently-named products both claiming the Saemidori cultivar.
