What did you say?!

After reading on the "Leslie, need rose suggestions!" thread about how some of us get names mixed up (still LOLing!), I thought of some of the plant names I've heard used. Not necessarily because the person didn't know the TRUE name; just that their version was much easier to pronounce.

For instance, one of my favorite "misnomers" is the one Mom uses for her Camellia sasanqua. She instead calls it Sasquatch. LOL

Feel free to list your favorite "misnomers", too! :D
