Thanks so much for the Help Loz and Melcon6...I am not a "stickler" for botanical names...but I find it much easier to get the plant I want when ordering if I know the Proper Latin name....Thanks again for the quick response!!! This will help so much!!! ![[wavey]](im/graemlins/wavey.gif)

Dang, Loz! ![[shocked]](im/graemlins/shock.gif)
I'll have to admit that's the first time I have looked at your plant pronunciation topic...because I don't know the many of the common names of plants, so I didn't want to boggle my simple mind with the proper names (the long names).
...and the links to the info here on each one is great!
You rocked with that, Loz!![[thumb]](im/graemlins/thumb.gif)
BTW...I have been pronouncing Iris correctly all these years,![[grin]](im/graemlins/grinnnn.gif)
but there is another common one in your guide that I will admit to mis-pronouncing forever...not saying which one. ![[Embarrassed]](im/redface.gif)

If you google plant pronunciation guide it's 6th on the list!
Search The Garden Helper:
I don't know where to post this thread...so hoping "Organically Speaking" is okay???
Was wondering if anyone out there had any ideas for sites that help you pronounce plant names correctly. I have had some experience with Latin, but not enough to be well versed. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
