Below are the Latin plant names of plants I cover beginning with the letters "K" or "L." Click any of the links to go to an entire article devoted to that particular plant, providing a description (height, flower color, etc.), growing advice and other relevant data.
Four entries below will grab the attention of the geographically-minded: Kerria japonica, Lagerstroemia x 'Natchez,' Loropetalum chinense and Lychnis chalcedonica.
Two of them are no-brainers, and those familiar with the Southeast in the U.S. will know about Natchez. But only the historically-astute will recognize chalcedonica (read my full article on that plant if you're stumped and wish to learn the answer).
If you don't see what you were looking for in the entries below, go to my Scientific Plant Names index.
