Notes to answerer
Asker: Găsisem ceapraz, dar în DEX nu apare cu sensul de plantă. Eu nu auzisem de ea, de asta căutam surse sigure. Mulţumesc.

Asker: Este un text literar, nu ar merge denumirea ştiinţifică (latină).


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  Cosmin Băduleţeanu: Al doilea cuvânt din denumirea ştiinţifică (jamaicense) sugerează faptul că specia nu creşte în România, deci nu poate avea nici denumire populară la noi. Fiind din familia Cyperacee, i se poate spune "specie de rogoz".

  -> Este posibil ca denumirea de "ceapraz" sa fie o denumire populara pentru o planta similara ca aspect. Cred ca cel mai bine ar fi daca traducatorul ar utiliza in acest caz doar denumirea din latina. Sunt curios ce varianta folositi pana la urma.
