Etymology of Borbonia:
For Jean-Baptiste Gaston de Bourbon, Duke of Orléans (1608–1660), third son of Henri IV of France, and patron of botany. His life is not related here. David Hollombe, researcher, advises ‘Gaston of Orleans, brother of Louis XIII, established a botanical garden at his palace of Blois, which had acquired much celebrity from the works of Morison, and by drawings of the most remarkable plants. Gaston of Orléans, not satisfied with the mere collection of plants of every country in his garden at Blois, had them described by learned botanists, and the most remarkable species drawn on vellum, by the painter Robert, eminent for his skill in that branch of the art.’
Etymology of cordifolia:
From the Latin ‘cordi’ / ‘cor’ meaning ‘heart’; and the Latin ‘folia’ / ‘folium’ meaning ‘leaf’.

Borbonia cordifolia Lam.
