Hi,

@zuzu or others...

I was adding the Begonia boliviensis "Bossa Nova Series" to the database but then had a question.

This is a seed-strain series from Floranova. On their website, each color has a "BOL202" type code with the name. At first I thought it was a case of them having those nonsense cultivar names and added it as such, but then I remembered it was a seed-strain series.

Does anyone know what is the proper way to list this series?

As if the indecisive taxonomists didn't make proper plant ID confusing enough, now we have breeders and marketers adding more confusion with all their trademarks and series names. Rolling my eyes.

Thanks!
