Scientific name for euphorbia?

In: Organic Gardening, Shrub Varieties, Taxonomy [Edit categories]

Answer:

Asking the scientific name of Euphorbia is like asking the present US president for his name. Euphorbia is a scientific name for a plant from a large family. The family is well described in Wikipedia. The trouble is that if a plants name in CBL (civilized botanical Latin is widely used, the common name is forgotten. One is likely to presume that the most used name must be a common name. In many English spoken countries this is common place. I can give you numerous examples, but it will take to far. Euphorbia can be a Spurge family representative. Look it up: it's there for reading.
