Growing Thistels from seeds
In article , Alan Gould
writes In article , Kay Easton writes Quite a few. You might remember more than one discussion in urg about 'collards' But wasn't that more about what plants popular names applied to? - a well known source of confusion, and nothing to do with taxonomy as such Do you have the Latin name for collards? Brassica oleracea (var) acephala Are you saying that there are plants within the brassicas which should not be? Or conversely, that plants not at present considered to be brassicas which you believe to be brassicas? Or are you making a plea for common names to be more nearly aligned with botanical classification? Any new classification should hopefully clarify all of those points. The bounds of genera in Brassicaceae is considered a problem, Brassica amongst them, but I'm not aware of any doubts about the placement of B. oleracea, B. napus and their amphiploid hybrid B. rapa. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley |
