We all need a fact checker/taxonomically talented editor now and then to remind/whip us into shape and correct vocabulary/diction.Are we in the realm of haynaldianum/ lowii?
And, by the way, I'm sorry to yet again sound as the pedantic language teacher: the name of the subgenus is Polyantha (from latin: polyanthus - actually latinized greek from poly (many), ánthos (flower, in plural anthas).
And here ended the lesson of today!![]()
