Or something. Your story is wonderful... and oh so true. Many a time I have found myself this past year going to regular garden centers looking for a type of tree. I guess the lack of hair on my head is from all the scratching! Never do find it....
Your explanation of the name and lack of agreement is right on!
This is why I try to find out what I got but do not go cazy with the lack of certainty.
I think I will display my trees with one of a few tags only.
1- Live tree
2- Hopefully live tree
3- It may not be alive but I still like it
4- OK its dead... get over it
These labels will be accurate, or at least so for the day they are attached!
