What about Dave's MOBOT's Tropicos source which says that "Kalanchoe luciae is a synonym and should be replaced by Kalanchoe luciae subsp. luciae"? It doesn't matter to me really. I'm satisfied that I'm growing K. luciae as opposed to K. thyrsiflora and that's as far as I'm willing to go with confidence. The MOBOT source makes it look like K. luciae alone is a synonym only. Generally, I think botanical gardens have interested and reliable folks doing the work, but taxonomy gets really convoluted so nothing is guaranteed. Since all my photos are of the same plant and the bloom would be as well, I'd just like all the Needrain photos posted under the same entry (as long it's not K. thyrsiflora Big Grin ) and then I'll add the bloom photo to database. It's hard to add anything to the database if you get concerned about being accurate - and accuracy does concern me. Can you move the photos to one database file, Evan?
