    Looks useful.  Always much easier to remember plant names when you know what they mean.  I've just about worked out alba, purpurea etc but could do with improving my knowledge and most modern books don't seem to cover this.

    The pronunciation part looks very useful, I am always mispronouncing Latin plant names - I didn’t know Salvia Greggii was pronounced greggy eye until GW programme told me otherwise! But is it clem attis or clem aar tis...
    Mountainous Northern Catalunya, Spain. Hot summers, cold winters.
