Hi Jim and all,
Thanks for all the nomenclature info. Had a big laugh over your humorous
review of the Lily show! As a novice grower and collector I have
experienced first hand confusion over info. when asking questions about
plant names. Even from books and magazines!
>From country to country names differ also and it is great to find out the
proper names of plants worldwide (although I must confess I generally use
the common names as other people tend to recognize them more easily).
Next time I get stuck I know where to go to get the correct info! Still
only learning and finding info. more fascinating every day.
Regards

P.S. I don't mind if anyone corrects me as I am keen to learn and expand my
knowledge.
Just please excuse any questions that may appear to be really silly!
