Very odd. Searching for the scientific name yeilded 229 Google hits yet searching for the "common name" got only 16. Should we still move this entry to the easier to remember name for consistency or should we go with Google? --mav

As a gardener, I'm familiar with this plant but had no idea of its common name. I'd stick with the Latin. --ramin

[edit] Flowering time of Euphorbia mellifera

As a professional gardener in the UK I grow Euphorbia mellifera in many gardens and have only ever seen it flower in late spring rather than autumn.


[edit] Euphorbia longifolia Lam.

is the true name of this species and E. mellifera Ait. is one of its synonyms only. Now what to do with this article? Ies 20:22, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
