What's wrong with the Camel?

O'Reilly holds the trade mark for the Camel used in connection with the Perl programming language. It's a pity that the most wildly recognized symbol for an open source programming language suffers such legal restrictions. (But to be fair it's O'Reilly that come up with the Camel, to the best of my knowledge).

Isn't a "camelia" a rose? Am I missing something here?

Camelia is the name of the Perl 6 mascot, which you can adore on http://perl6.org/.
