I suggest we normalize all plants to preferred binomial names from Wikidata. We do not need truncated values at present (e.g. O. tenuiflorum) as the genus is potentially ambiguous.
We should have a synonym table (n:1) for non-preferred name => preferred name. It is possible there may be ambiguity (e.g. "basil") - we should omit this at this stage.
