Most Comprehensive Database for identifying Plants

[M Farooq]

Lately, there has been a great interest in plant names and identification in this forum. We all strive to know the plant names as a curiosity to know more about the plants that grow in our garden mainly from the web.

There is a website, which lists almost all plants name that exist on this Earth (about 1 million so far), and once you search a certain name, there are plenty of options after searching, from searching the images from Google to actually checking when the plant was discovered and named. It is a great resource! It is authentic and mainly aimed for plant taxonomists (people whose job is to identify and name plants:-) ).

Secondly, as many members know, another favourite is the "Flowers of India" website. This is more photographic listing of thousands of flowering plants.
