Hi,
I need a website that if i type in the common name or latin name it will give me the opposite.
TIA,
SYR36
I need a website!
can u pls. be specific as to what type of plant u will be searching for? my bookmarks are classified accdg to type of plants i.e flowering plants, trees, vines, etc. otherwise i use goggle seach.
I used to have a sight that if i typed in the the common name it would give me the latin name.... or vice versa
That's it!! :-)
Thanks a Bunch,
Sis
SYR, our Latin name lookup will do the same thing - look in the right-hand column under DG network.
i know i tried that... however if i have the common name and need the latin one i can't get it....
I am trying to find all the common names and vice versa for what I have so that way i have both names... if the plant has it...

Sis, you've mispelled it. It's "Ipomoea" (there's an extra o toward the end). The Latin Lookup found 173 entries under Ipomoea.
"Morningglory" (2 g's) found the correct entry.
The Latin Lookup isn't perfect, but it's not bad.

SYR, you can type the common name into Latin name lookup, and it will pull up all the plants with that common name, as well as their botanical names. Am I missing something (very possible - I've got a serious case of caffeine deprivation going on this morning.)
Sis, here's a tip I've found helpful when doing websearches - either within a site like DG or via Google, et al.
If you don't find results using the entire name, choose one (the most distinctive) word to search on. In this case, the Latin lookup has the common names for morning glories hyphenated - "morning-glory". (I would have never thought to type it with a hyphen.) But when I don't get results, I choose one word - in this case "glory", and sure enough you'll get a lot of hits for morning glory :)
MVR,
Thanks for that site l don't have time now as i have to go work :( will check it later when i do...
