User reviews

Incredible resource

This is an invaluable tool. The body of work to create it is inspiring.

Great content, needs some usability tweaks

Love this app and use it almost daily as I learn about the plants in my area. The content is really excellent.

A few UI complaints:

The splash screen takes too long to clear, this slows down the process of opening up the app. It would be great to search fact sheets in addition to the alphabetical listing. Also it would be great if images could be zoomed to help show small details.
