Re: [Aroid-l] Philodendron warscewiczii

From: Hannon <othonna at gmail.com> on 2013.02.23 at 01:03:05(22778) John, As I understand the proper way to write cultivar names, these are both acceptable: P. warscewiczii 'Flavum' HTML +More -or- P. warscewiczii cv Flavum If you use "cv" then don't use any quotes (always single quotes BTW) and vice versa. I think it is more common, by convention, to use single quotes and omit the cv. The cultivar name is always capitalized but never the specific epithet.

See attachment. But will someone among the taxonomists please tell me if my nomenclature is correct in this case? (Sorry 1 Should have put “Philodendron warscewiczii cv. ‘Flavum’.
