To the point: I've been trying to decide on a Flower to head a subdivision in the DoSAT, the Testing and Application Division. I had settled on fireweed, mostly for the sake of humor (considering it grows, as the name suggests, mostly in burnt areas). However, fireweed is known in Britain (and I know British English is our preferred mode) as rosebay willowherb, which is all well and good, but which also lessens the punch of the humor.

So which name would I be better off using?
