Please include a photo and the location if you know it.

If your plant is identified, please respond to the answer or the post with "Identified!" or "Solved!" so Automoderator can flair your post as Identified!

###Be Kind

Unkind behavior will be removed.

###Be Helpful

Unhelpful content will be removed.

###Don't recommend edibility

Please don't recommend the edibility or use of plants, fruits, etc. We have seen wrong ID's given out too often telling people that something is edible when it is not or has been misidentified. This can be potentially dangerous. Give the identification and let the OP do their own research. Edibility recommendations/discussions will be removed.

###Moderators Have Discretion

Moderators reserve the right to remove content at their discretion.

###No YouTube Videos

YouTube videos will be removed.

###Plant Identification Posts Only

Please don't post general gardening activities, advertisements, etc. Just plants that need to be identified. Unrelated posts will be removed.
