english-italian plants
rerum schreef
Hi, everybody
I'm translating a novel, set in South Africa, and I found those
plants, but I couldn't find the Italian equivalent of their names.
Is there anybody who can help me? Is there a website where I can go
and solve my doubts?
stinkwood = Ocotea bullata
yellowwood = Podocarpus sl (incl Afrocarpus/Nageia)
knob thorn = Acacia nigrescens
camel thorn = Acacia erioloba
sweet thorn = Acacia karroo
sugar bush = Protea repens (likely other Protea spp too)
arum = probably Arum
Thanks in advance

South Africa must be the country with the most plant books
per surface area? Should not be hard to find a few good books.
If these plants don't have established Italian names it
might be best not to translate
