Oh, crap.

I have just determined that the plant I have been referring to as Cereus peruvianus for the last almost-two years is in fact Cereus hildmannianus, which I would not have realized without this post at Claude's blog Random Rants and Prickly Plants and subsequent sorta-verification ("sorta" because there seems to be a little confusion there, too) at davesgarden.com. This means that I have to track down mentions of C. peruvianus and change them to C. hildmannianus, which Blogger search tells me is likely to involve edits to at least 19 different posts, including a plant profile. There goes Tuesday.

This wouldn't be so bad, except that I've recently had to do this for Pseudorhipsalis ramulosa (previously called Disocactus NOID), Euphorbia pseudocactus (previously called E. grandicornis, though that situation was complicated by the fact that I also talk about E. grandicornis correctly in places), and Ctenanthe burle-marxii (previously Calathea concinna, more previously Calathea NOID -- though again, I was using Calathea concinna correctly in spots). If this sort of thing keeps up, I'm never going to have the time to write any new content: I'll be too busy correcting the old.

I need an intern.
