I know you all really wanted to know that...........
Knowing the latin name,whilst comendable has no real or relevant use,in the actual real world of running a florist shop,as you say "everyone" calls it soft ruscus...because thats what it is.
The day that the people who set these assignments move into the real world, cannot come soon enough for this industry,by all means give students a general grounding on this kinda stuff,but to labour on it serves no great purpose...JUST MY OPINION...WAS SHOUTED...
