Sorry to inform you fella but that's "Veld Lily" now.

I'm not surprised that you still are using the highly offensive racist name
for the plants.

Ignorance is no excuse. Those who still use the offensive name should be
informed not to and why. Its no different than using the "N word", Honkey.

(Honkey is a malaprop term used to denote a "white person". The term is
actually slang for Hungarian or more specifically used to describe a gypsy.
The joke is that gypsies tend to be swarthy and not light skinned at all.
Particularly humorous is that it was said by a "pimp" on the Chappell Show
that the term was made popular by a man named George Jefferson (a character
on a 70's TV show). That's an anachronism about a malaprop!!!)
