Hold on there! I'm just as confused as the next guy. I attribute
my current spelling of D.spatulata 'rotundata' to Jan's nomenclature
list. I've seen it spelled both ways in various books and used to
spell it the other way myself until I found the plant in his list.
Maybe Jan can shed some light on this?
