Hedge Apple? (jasmine cruises through her meager references at
work and finds nothing) Same thing as Osage Orange, right? Maclura
something as part of the botanical name. pomifera? A new world plant,
as I remember it. Bummer.

You know what I really wish we had? A comprehensive reference of
plants that are listed in original source material and any other
period source material, including a listing of their current
botanical and any previous botanicals they might have had. Anyone
know of one?
