Flowers That Have Many Names (Plant Red Flower)
Hello everyone, actually I've been saving this photo for over a month just to write about this flower I don't have the courage.
This flower has many names, in Indonesia this flower has the name Batavia flower. Batavia is the old name of Jakarta, I don't know if this flower has a historical story about the city. What is clear is that I don't know and I won't go too far into the city's story.
Maybe my writing this time is less interesting to read because to be honest I don't really understand flowers with too many names. This time I write with an empty head born from the joy of seeing and photographing it.
I took eight photos of Plant Red Flower/ Jatropha Integerrima/ Batavia Flowers while I was resting in the garden, maybe the results are not satisfactory but this is all I can present at this opportunity and I hope you are entertained and like it.
Thanks for the opportunity for me.
All flowers have multiple names.
Each culture that encounters the flower will give it a name.
Flowers often have different species. It is not uncommon for plants to develop different species in different climate zones. So, aach species will need a different name in each language.
Explorers travel the world to collect plants. Sadly, they often make mistakes with the names.
The scientific community has done a fairly good job cataloging cataloging flowers.
When I take pictures of flowers, I like to state the location of the plant and report both the local name and what I believe to be the scientific name.
I looked up Jatropha integerrima. Wikipedia says that the Jatropha integerrima is a spurge native to Cuba. Wikipedia lists many species in the Jatropha genus

Yes, yes, sorry, I'm just looking for story material.
And thanks for reading my writing.
No need to be sorry.
The local names for plants make for some of the best stories.
Scientists have done a good job classifying plants. The scientific names usually have a European bias.
People also transplant flowers. So it is important for people to figure out what is native and what is imported.
Keeping track of the flora and fauna on this planet is an important job.
