Picture Swedish Ivy in a hanging basket in Killeen, Texas seems wrong[edit]
I think the picture is showing Plectranthus glabratus (Benth.) Alston in H.Trimen, Handb. Fl. Ceylon 6(Suppl.): 236 (1931). Syn. Plectranthus coleoides and not Plectranthus verticillatus, which has no white color at the end of its leaves. Ecothlon (talk) 09:34, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
Pretty sure. Removed it while doing general revision. Ecothlon (talk) 19:39, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
"Bill W plant" ?[edit]
Best I can tell, this is also the plant known in Alcoholics Anonymous communities as the "Bill W plant", after the organization's founder. However, I have not found any sources that link the genus-species name to the "Bill W plant", only to "Swedish ivy".
Discussion?
