I totally agree about spelling and entering correct info to begin with. Machines are not more intelligent than humans.
I am not justifying anything, but many things are misspelled on the web, and if cut and pasted , transfer that error. I always try to find at least sources for the same term before mentioning it. But one must consider the sources.
My preferred sources are USDA,, wildflower.org, floridata. I find RHS difficult to access. But no database is totally infallible, including ATP nor ATP's elder sibling.
And I am no more correct than anyone else, we all have a variety of useful knowledge and wisdom,
which IMHO, can be shared for the benefit if all. NO ONE should be made to feel inferior. Intelligent people know that curiosity is a good thing and should be encouraged.
If anyone has been patient enough to read this through to the end, I will reveal this, not for pity, but perhaps understanding: I am legally blind.
I can spell perfectly well, but sometimes things look correct but aren't. I try my hardest to make sure not to make errors, but stuff happens !
If anyone opines that I don't belong here, just say so.
I can continue to contribute elsewhere.
Count your blessings, I pray you never have to be challenged. It is a major pain. But I am blessed in infinite ways. I bid you peace and joy.
