Why is this under the scientific name?

Generally Wikipedia uses the common name of living things if one exists; surely "yardlong bean" is common and unambiguous, and a lot more recognizable to the average reader than Vigna unguiculata subsp. sesquipedalis. Are there other beans commonly known as "yardlong beans"? Vultur (talk) 10:51, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

Vigna unguiculata subsp. sesquipedalis → Yardlong bean – Per WP:COMMONNAME and WP:FLORA. As this plant is extensively consumed as a vegetable, the large majority of reliable sources covering it are non-scientific sources using the generic name. Paul_012 (talk) 19:35, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

• Oppose why yardlong bean? Asparagus bean is a much more commonly used name than yardlong bean according to Google Ngrams, and yard long bean is competitive with yardlong bean in recent years. What evidence shows that yardlong bean is the most appropriate title per WP:COMMONNAME? Plantdrew (talk) 05:31, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

I have no problem with Asparagus bean as the target. Would you support a move to that name? (Your "oppose" suggests a preference for retaining the scientific name as the title.) --Paul_012 (talk) 08:36, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

• Support move to Asparagus bean per above.  ONR  (talk)  11:50, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

Subspecies

Vigna unguiculata subsp. sesquipedalis is in fact the 'sesquipedalis' group of the Vigna unguiculata subsp. unguiculata (See this). And asparagus beans are just a cultivar in that group. Other cultivars include something like File:Vigna unguiculata subsp. sesquipedalis.jpg which is long ('sesquipedalis'), but looks and tastes quite different from asparagus beans. --Gomuragi (talk) 05:43, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
