Ratings and reviews

I love this app. It's a great companion, often starting point, for the Flora of Virginia app, especially for us nonbotanists. Defining botanical terms used in each species description is great! I'd give it 5 stars, but typing anything into the search field is excruciatingly slow.

Helped me identify odd plants i find

This has been very helpful this spring. It's not exhaustive, but has the majority of the species you might find. Very pleased with the ap.
