Orchid ID app

I love the app. One big ask is would it be possible to add more than one picture of each sighting. A whole plant. A closeup of the flower and maybe one of the leaf. I don’t want to make three entries of the same plant if I can help it. Also you cannot zoom into your pictures. If those two features were fixed it would be perfect.

The 'Chids Are All Right

I purchased this on the strength of the wild flower and tree apps that I have already. I know very little about orchids, but this contains enough information and clear photos to enjoy.

Great app

Love this app, it's really satisfying for when you completely recognise a flower but can't place a name to it, this app really helps you. Great for natures lovers like me !
