Salvia praeclara

Hi Everybody,

What many of us have been recently growing as Salvia praeclara should correctly be named as Salvia exserta.

This is on good authority from John Wood, the British botanist.

Several more name changes are imminent, especially Argentinian and Bolivian natives. Meyeri, stachydifolia, rypara, gilliesii have all been mis-named. Rhinosina might figure somewhere.

All very annoying and confusing, but if one day we have some species correctly named, that will be good. Until the botanists change their minds yet again!!!

I think I will have another glass of wine!

Robin.
