My view is the more documentation the better, so I think we should note the correction with a link to the corrections list:
Brown, B. Frank 1995. Crotons of the World. p 103, photo labeled 'Barbara Bush' is 'Evening Embers'.
See unofficial book corrections at
http://www.palmpedia.net/wiki/index.php/UNOFFICIAL_CORRECTION_LIST_TO_FRANK_BROWN'S_BOOK
Or we could say "is actually 'Evening Embers'."
or "is believed to be 'Evening Embers'." - I kind of like this wording...
Also, any other known references to this cultivar should be noted as well.
Any members here with knowledge of this sort should post it on the forum or send a Private Message or email to Scott, myself, Bren or any active involved member so that we can get that information into the wiki...
An interesting note here is that 'Barbara Bush', like many of the crotons pictured in Brown's book, is not mentioned anywhere in the text of the book...
In other words there is no documentation of the origin (when/where/who?) of this croton or its name.
'Evening Embers' is not mentioned anywhere in Brown's book.
It would be nice if we could document origins wherever possible, like where did the name 'Evening Embers' come from?
