Re: Sans. grandis


Dear Hermine,

Please don't color my inquiry as snide or confrontational. That is not my
intent at all. I am truly unsure to which plant Jim is alluding. He has not
made it clear in his posting. I am only asking for a description of his
plant. What harm is there in that?

It has been mentioned several times in this forum that Sansevieria grandis
is  nothing more than a renaming of the original Sansevieria hyacinthoides.
The telling of convoluted nomenclatural history of the types species of the
genus would only bore the members of this forum. Several have made it clear
that they have no interest in the history and nomenclature of the plants.

IS THERE NO END TO SNIDE AND CONFRONTATIONAL POSTINGS????
I am getting seriously tired of this.
