![]() The original Goldfinger was grown from a seed found in a Prata Ana which is a dwarf cultivar and the Goldfinger is also a dwarf. And because it was grown from a seed found in a cultivar, that makes it a new and unique variety that isn't part of any subgroup. The Veinte Cohol is another dwarf cultivar that isn't part of a subgroup and even though it's a dwarf it is not commonly referred to as the dwarf Veinte Cohol. This isn't an explanation, only an observation.
