The one on Cooks trips?
That was because the system of scientific names was only just starting
or was many seperate systems. He was one of the people that helped
demonstrate the needs.

Yeah he's "the man" He was as I see it a great scientist, and able to
afford to be. But I only wanna grow vege's.
A fascinating story if ever there was one.
You noticed they speared cook, not banks
If they knew what banks would be doing later on, they would have left
the cook alone.

Leave the name droppers to the "experts" not the pretend experts you
hear spouting that they know the name of this or that like that radio
station gardening pretender.

As was pointed out, there are reasons why knowing the latin name is
necessary., e.g. someone on TV called "Oyster Plants" "Bear Bonnets".


He said Bear's Breeches -- I was watching too! Acanthus mollis. And you need
to know that they're acanthus if you like architecture, because Classical
Greek buildings (and ensuing revivals) used Acanthus as a motif, and they call
it Acanthus, not Oyster Plant or Bear's Breeches!

Er any plant with that sorta name aint on my list of desirables.
The confusion on TV is minor compared to the written word.
References to greek buildings while referring to plants isnt a
requirement, unless your hobbies are plants and buildings.
Yes names are important, but I still say unless youre a nursery man, its
not necessary. Mere details.
For scientists and students, its great to know what species, but Ive
found that familiarity with types of plants allows insight into species
which can be quite accurate for home purposes.
Any plant that has a latin name gets zeroed for ease of gardening..
