dave said:On select pulldowns, if a plant already has an option selected for the pulldown (like minimum cold hardiness) and you subsequently submit a mass proposal that adds a different pulldown option, it will indeed add rather than replace the pulldown.
That seems like a benefit to me! It tells the reader that someone thought 10F was the minimum cold hardiness, and someone else thought that -5F was.
Due to microclimates, I bet that people who base their temps on NOAA reports or their own window thermometer, but grow plants in particular exposures will naturally be reporting that kind of variation. Also, a climate with consistently gradual temperature changes will probably support much more tender plants than a climate with many rapid temperatures changes including multiple cold snaps and warm snaps.
When the facts are fuzzy, it's a good thing if the reporting can express some of that fuzziness. Just my opinion.

I think this sort of notation is confusing
Flowering: Other: Many will repeat bloom if spent blooms are removed.
How about "Flowering: Other: Many
Armeria will repeat bloom if spent blooms are removed."
That way the reader will know how generic the comment is: it could be a species name, a genus name or even a common name.
