I can see how comon names may be of secondary importance
but still very important to have in the database. When doing a search enter
biome/geographic location/climatic zone/bioregion plus common name of
the plant to find out what it is and looks like in different areas around the
globe.

This is great, Lawrence - you can enter where you are in the hg, and it can
search accordingly. So if you search for ironwood in NC and then you want to
see what it looks like in Greece (I have no idea if ironwood grows there), it
won't return another plant that's called ironwood in Greece but that isn't the
plant you were referring to. Ok I think I just made (er, reiterated) a
completely obvious point.
