How are Plumeria species and varieties named?
Plumeria species and varieties are named using a system of botanical nomenclature. When a new species or variety of Plumeria is discovered or developed, it undergoes formal naming according to international botanical rules. The process involves providing a unique Latin or Greek name to the new taxon, which consists of a genus name (Plumeria) and a specific epithet. The specific epithet may describe the plant’s distinguishing features, habitat, or the name of the person who discovered or cultivated it. Proper botanical naming ensures clarity, consistency, and accurate identification of Plumeria species and varieties within the scientific community.
