Re: Jacobina


Actually, I answered it myself w/Donna's help.  since the messages were
slowed down today you might have seen my answer b4 my qstn. As it turns out,
Jacobina is a misspelling of Jacobinia which is a defunct synonym of this
Justicia. Google Jacobina and you get nothing.  Spell it right as Jacobinia
and you get plenty, but it is still an invalid name.
