Scientific names offer precision and accuracy when identifying plants, but they can also intimidate even the most seasoned gardener. Amy Highland, director of collections and conservation lead at Mt. Cuba, breaks down the various components in a Latin binomial, including why plants are named in this way and what a Latin name can teach us about a plant. This introductory course leaves attendees well prepared for any magazine article, nursery catalog, or class with a strong Latin name component.
