Question Do we need species id for plant images? Charles (talk) 20:17, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Charles I did not find it in the rules at the top of the FPC page, but maybe it's required by long-standing practice. I agree it should be preferred at least. I'm too new to QIC/FPC to know the answer, but this is a Hosta sieboldiana, cultivar "Yellow Splash Rim" (the yellow part often looks like a pale green). Hosta montana is an oft-used synonym for this species. I will add this to the photo description and adjust categories as needed. PumpkinSky talk 20:46, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Charles (talk) 20:59, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's a cultivar; and so named Hosta 'Yellow Splash Rim'. The other cultivar Hosta 'Yellow Splash' seems different. I'm not sure whether this is a Hosta sieboldiana cultivar. Better ask a plant expert here. J e e 10:05, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:Jkadavoor This page and This page tell us that H. montana is synonym of H. sieboldiana. Way at the bottom, this page tells us that the yellow rimmed hostas are H. montana. Of the yellow rim-type cultivars, I don't think this is a 'Francis Williams' nor 'Yellow Splash' (so we agree on that one). It appears to me to be a 'Yellow Splash Rim', though if someone said it was a 'Aureomarginata' cultivar I couldn't argue as they're very hard to tell apart. While I'm fairly comfortable with this being in the sieboldiana group based on the links I've provided; I have no problem asking for WP:Plant project verification. I will go do that now. Thank you for your comments and interest. PS, I really enjoy looking at the photos you upload. PumpkinSky talk 10:51, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

My confusion is whether it belongs to Category:Hosta sieboldiana cultivars or Category:Hosta cultivars. Hope we'll get a help from the WikiProject Plants. J e e 14:16, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
