[IBC] Latin vs common name was: [IBC] Please help with Wrightia Religiosa
 

There are others, but I find the Hutchinson Dictionary of Plant
Names: Common and Botanical" to be a great help -- both in
identifying plants whose scientific names I don't know, and in
sorting out plants which have the same common names, but actually
are 5-6 different plants.

And to help understand the meaning of those latin names, you can look at
the IBC's dictionary

For example: sempervirens=always green.
