I seem to be having an editing conflict with
[[user:MPF|MPF]]. He is insisting on changing "tuliptree"
to "Tulip tree" and "cucumbertree" to "Cucumber tree". We
had a big discussion about the capitalization issue last
year, though I don't think we discussed the compounding
issue. Does anyone remember this? Didn't we decide for
plants NOT to capitalize? In any case, all the authorities
either compound or hyphenate; none of them use two separate
words. See [[talk:Tulip tree]] for more.
