We list items with the botanical name, followed by
the common name.
How do I decipher those latin plant names and why
is it a good idea to know what they are?
Let's take Acer rubrum 'October Glory' as an example. The first is
the genus, the second is the species, and the third, if it exists,
is the particular cultivar. The main point is that the latin name
uniquely identifies a plant, like a social security number does for
people, whereas common names vary from place to place. The 'October
Glory' cultivar is similar in characteristics to, but uniquely
different from, 'Red Sunset'. What you are looking for may not be
what you get if you shop by only the common name, which in our
example is a red maple.
