geophyte or not

Thanks to Mary Sue Ittner for her well-composed and thoughtful 
response to this discussion.

I fully agree that there is no harm in allowing members to add genera 
or species that are marginally geophytic to the wiki. Those who are 
not interested in these genera need not look at those entries. It 
should simply be made clear in the introduction to the page what type 
of underground storage structure is present.

The internet is a library, not an exercise in scientific 
classification. If searching for Paeonia (or even Cynoglossum) leads 
someone to the PBS, we should simply appreciate that opportunity.
