Quite a few times I've looked at a plant name that someone mentions and draw a complete blank only to find that I know it under what is now an "old" name.

Those damn taxonomists...
Sucked us in to using botanical names under the premise that then everybody would know which plant we were referring to... because... while they might have multiple "common names", they each only have 1 botanical name...
Then they go and switch out the names on us...
