The name game

Article Abstract:

A knowledge of latin is an immense help for gardeners trying to decipher plant names, but even experienced gardeners may never be able to keep up with name changes and the new names resulting from the creation of new hybrids. Beyond the names, a knowledge of pronunciation and the organization of biological families is helpful. As more knowledge about a particular plant's place in the larger biological world is gathered, plant names are likely to change to reflect new classifications.
