This is a really interesting problem that will not be solved overnight. I do believe, however, that we here at ATP have an opportunity to bring light to the darkness that currently surrounds this issue. I believe there is no place on the internet where you can definitely look up plants with their real and proper names, now that the tradenames issue is so out of control.

It is something that I spend a great deal of time contemplating, and I am confident that WE will be the ones that really get this issue resolved and in doing so, we will be doing a great service to the gardening industry.

Not at the moment, but such a functionality would not be very difficult. I can create a "Clone an entry" tool that will create a new plant with all the same data as the original one.
