I learn my botany from a man who swears a lot and talks about societal problems while exploring construction zones.

It doesn’t have a common name on purpose.

How is it asparagus if it’s not in the genus Asparagus?
angrystego@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Yep, I don’t trust them they’re a botanist.

So I went on Wikipedia and apparently Ornithogalum adseptentrionesvergentulum and its genus Ornithogalum are part of the Asparagaceae family which is known as the asparagus family, not to be confused with the Asparagus genus, of which it is but a subset. Gotta love when they fuck with the people like that.

Yeah I know but I object to calling all plants in the asparagus family types of asparagus. Otherwise we’ll soon be dealing with famous types of asparagus such a hostas, agaves, bluebells, dracaenas, and many others.

Actually, yeah. Is there a biology or chemistry equivalent to Simon Singh’s The Big Bang?
