Hello fellow gardeners,


Can someone explain the term 'of gardens' in the naming of some plants. For
example:

Chrysanthemum maximum of gardens
Buxus harlandii of gardens

These terms are used for some plants and it is unclear what this means.

Hello, Pat. Where did you see this used? And could it mean that the plants
originated from garden plant 'parents' and not from wild ones?
