>Yes, i thught nelsonii was a made-up name for a particular unbanded, solid
medium dark green plant. People make up names, and instead of an obvious
cultivar name or other name which would clue us as to the plants actual
status, this one got nellsonii clapped n it. an since that was the only
name i had, i kept it and the record of from whence it came. I don't think
botanical gardens do necessarilly a better job of meticulous researching a
name before putting a label on something. this is just the name it cme
with. a think to call it. until it is sorted out.
