Changing Botanical Names
There is a beautiful shy Australian called ‘Sturt Desert Pea’. I just
included it in my ebook, and I try to be accurate when adding botanical names. Strangely, this one is ‘Clianthus formosus’ in some books, but ‘Swainsona formosa’ in others. I chose the latter because it seems a more recent naming. I found that in 1999 yet another classification was suggested but “…rejected by the scientific community…” Question: who exactly determines a plant’s classification? Thanks for replies – Klaus www.greetings122.com |
