Bumbalatty (in my opinion) is awkward and hard to remember. Pianta is classy...definitely the one I'd choose.

I must agree with Jesse, I'd go with Pianta.

As a native spanish speaker, I should tell you the word for plant in spanish is 'planta' with an 'l' not an 'i'. Pianta might be Portugese, very similar language.

pianta is not Portuguese for plant, the Portuguese translation is planta same as in Spain

Pianta is the Italian translation for plant, I would go for Pianta

Pianta. Bumblebladder doesn't say anything about what it is. If you have one name, use a name that describes what it is you do. Casa Pianta has a nice ring to it. "Distinctive [heirloom] plants for the contemporary home." Since heirloom plants are big, you can use that too. It sounds distinguished and upscale.

That's my suggestion.

I like pianta - who cares what language its originated form spain, italy or portugal those languages originated from latin so they all have close spellings on each words!

But Pianta seems like a nice choice in my opinion
