Hi Wellsy
Why do they have to have 6 billon names for things?
Name as you wish
Just out of interest
If i was to show this plant what class would it go in
Sarc or Parachilus? or would it go into say a (complex group)
Cheers Tim
with the Sarc's
In with the Sarc's Tim....thats what it is now with the name changes.
I know name changes are pesky and hard to take but best if everyone checks with the absolute authorities ie: the RHS and all will be well!
