Can somebody explain the difference between "serenoa serrulata" and "serenoa
repens"

The reason that I ask is that I have two supplements each with one of the
the above and I am trying to determine which is more efficacious for BPH.

Thank you, Ken

According to the GRIN taxonomy page and other sources I have at hand,
there isn't any. Just two different species names for the same plant.
Serenoa repens is the commonly accepted name, but some people just have
to be different.
