My son & Jenny (his wife) gave me several plants for the yard that I'm sure have "scientific" names but I always have called them "Lamb Ears" because the leaves are so soft and velvety to the touch. I said "oh, Lamb Ears, I love them" and they said "well, usually they are but now they are Badger Ears". And yes, they feel like my RB Badger's ears ~ soft and velvety.. I love my family Happy Mother's Day all
