Are sellers just making up buce names nowadays?

Find I'll buy 10 bucks under 10 diff names.

Grow them out for a few months to find 80% look identical, even if the emersed form looked different.

Might be easier to just classify them into 4 shapes, 4 sizes and 4 colors at this point.

Shapes:
Thin leaves
Catherinae
Round
Long round

Leaf Sizes (adult forms)
Nano thin
Nano chubby
Quarter size
Large

Colors:
Green
Dark green
Blue ish
Purple/reddish

This pretty much describes every species I've seen and collected. Might be better off just describing the adult form if grown with CO2 rather than 1000 names like

"Buce king alexander the 4th"

Are you implying that “Buce Pink Dolphin var. Fall Equinox Supreme (SUPER MEGA RARE!!! )” is a bad name?

All seriousness, I share the same feelings as you describe. They really should have a standardized classification like the majority of other plants with extensive variants.

Is that one for sale? I hope it's as pink as the Amazon dolphins.

The more exotic the name, the faster it melts into a puddle of snail food.
