Yes, but you are really good at identifying everything, so you'd know anyway!! I love looking at the 'plant id please' threads, but unless the writer is a complete beginner, I never know the answer. Sometimes I recognise the plant, and I go 'Oh yeah, it's a one of those thingies'. Sometimes, I even know a bit about how to look after a 'one of those thingies' as well. But on the whole, those threads serve as a reminder of how little I actually know about plants!!
Reminds me of a joke I made up in my youth - 'what do you call a cheesy wotsit' after you've eaten it? A cheesy wotwozit!' Needless to say, I haven't been invited onto any t.v. comedy panel show you've heard of, ever.....!

I love a bargain though. Lots of my shrubs came cheap because they had no label.

Looking after the thingies is more important than knowing what they're called.
I know the names of most of the plants I've killed or allowed to die by neglect
