A careful identification process

Look, compare, then confirm.

No result is presented as a certainty. Common, nursery, trade, and scientific names stay together so the plant is easier to recognize.

01

Take a clear photo

Use one plant, natural light, and include the leaves, stems, or flowers that make it distinctive.

02

Compare likely matches

Review several possibilities, confidence, common or trade names, and the features that separate look-alikes.

03

Confirm before saving

Open the full guide, choose the best match, and decide whether to add it to your collection.
