University of North Carolina's Southeastern Flora Team is pleased to present FloraQuest™: Carolinas & Georgia, a new plant identification and discovery app covering more than 5,800 wildflowers, trees, shrubs, grasses, and other vascular plants occurring in southeast part of our Flora area (North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia).

With easy-to-use graphic keys, advanced dichotomous keys, habitat descriptions, range maps, and 20,000 diagnostic photographs, FloraQuest: Carolinas & Georgia is the perfect companion for your botanical explorations.

You can use FloraQuest to make plant identifications in the field or learn about plants anywhere in the region. The app allows you to customize your search by state and physiographic province so you only see relevant results. FloraQuest: Carolinas & Georgia doesn't need an internet connection to run, so you can take it with you wherever you go. The app's "Great Places to Botanize" section will guide you to visit the best sites for botanical exploration throughout the 3-state region. Do you struggle to remember complicated botanical terms? We've got you covered: click on a word you don’t know, and the definition will pop up in the app without you having to leave the page!

Stay tuned following the release of the FloraQuest: Carolinas & Georgia app, as we will be working diligently to provide similar versions for the remaining regions across the Flora of the Southeastern States, until all 25 states are covered!

Ratings and reviews

I initially hesitated due to the cost, but now I realize this is like a better version of two or more field guides that would cost at least that each. I love that I can filter down to my sub-region as that greatly narrows the possibilities. The graphic key is a nice addition to the dichotomous keys (which are also region-filtered!). The one-time purchase entitles you to ongoing updates as work continues on the Flora of Southeastern US. Perfect complement to your favorite AI id app.

Love this app but half the time I use it I am looking for good winter endbud and leaf scar pics for the woody plants and there are rarely if ever any pictures depicting these. frustrating and confounding that they are not automatically included.

A really well thought out app. As complete as any reference you can find for Georgia and the Carolinas.
