Correction of names?

Hi all,

It's been some time since i'm active in forum.. haha.. Mainly busy with the project i am doing and tonnes of work pile up for me to do...

I had received the latest shipment of crotons, and i need some help to see if the names are right.

The names are as followed;
* Received Names ** Smiliar names that i previously received

Hybrid #11* - #11
Diane Kelly* - Diane Kelley**
Elaine Fisher*
Flame*
Irrestible*
Jean Claude Fascell*
Joanna Coppinger*
Leah*
Pictatum* - Picturatum**

hahaha. thanks thanks..

 

I sure would like to see a photo if possible of that one thats called "Leah" never heard of that one before

 

Hi Irene,
Good to have you back. Here are some ideas - without pictures, it's difficult. Dlaine and Kelly are names of two different crotons. I wonder if Elaine Fisher is Eleanor Fischler ( it's a long leaved green with a lot of yellow blotching)?
Marie

 

Irrestible* - an obvious misspelling of Irresistible

Jean Claude Fascell* - there is a JEAN FRANCES FASCELL in the wiki:

Joanna Coppinger* - I think the correct spelling is Johanna

Pictatum* - another obvious misspelling...

 

IRENE WELCOME BACK !!!

We have missed you here.

 

Speaking of missing people, where's Scott Mcintosh? I hope nobody ran him off....
