Botanical Names Index
This is an alphabetical list of the Botanical Names of the plants that have blogs on this website.
To access a blog click on the plant name highlighted in green and the requested blog will be opened for you in a new tab.
We are in the process of updating all our plant blogs. We have changed our naming convention to drop the abbreviation “subsp.” between the specific name and the subspecies name. So, for example, Diospyros lycioides subsp. guerkei will now just show as Diospyros lycioides guerkei.
