I've been wondering the same thing. All I know is that I planted purchased seedlings of bok choy and pak choy at the same time (late April), and the bok choy is growing happily and the pak choy bolted to flowers. They are in similar positions as far as sun and shelter. I'm hoping someone may be able to explain.
They are not the same.
Pak Choy is sweeter, has green soft stems.
Bok Choy is slightly more bitter (but still sweet) and has white harder stems than Pak choy.
They look very similar but if you know the difference, its quite obvious.
