I realize that not everybody knows the rules for naming species and
cultivars , that does not mean they dont exist or are unclear.
The rules for adding or not the species name are simple and can
be read by everyone.
A plant like H montana 'Mountain Snow' can be named as such but
also H ' Mountain Snow' I prefer the first one providing it is a true
species. ( it is, the fact that it is found in the wild or in the garden
does not make a difference ) So the best solution for the library
would to have the few that are true species and have a cv name to
add them twice to the list, with and without the species name.
