Visit to Wisley

I recently visited the beautiful RHS Wisley for the first time last travelling back from Southampton.

I was very impressed with the buildings, Gardens, cafe & garden centre, in particular there with a number of staff that stood out for me, inter alia.
Izzy L - I was welcomed at the reception with information and a smile, thank you.
Penelope - I enjoyed accessing the Laboratory where I enjoyed the Townsend room and talking to Penelope, thank you.
Garden centre staff, Steven, Daniel (Dan), Ruth & Sam N were very helpful whilst I was buying 3 beautiful ceramic pots and plants and advising on the micro-drip system, thank you

Notes

It would be very helpful if you could alter the date of a note. You don’t always have time to add notes on the day you pot on, prune or photograph a plant

It’s ok

Very good at identifying actual plants, but does not let you know what weeds are (wife has a different app and told her is simple terms that some seedlings were weeds and not what we planted, for instance this app said it was spinach 😂). It’s average app but definitely not worth the price.

False mac compatibility

Being on the Apple app store in the first place would imply that the app is compatible with Apple devices. However, going onto it on an unaltered (relevant for later) Mac, will result in it reporting that the Mac is "rooted", which is purely an android term, that if it was applied to a Mac would imply that the Mac's OS was tampered with/edited, which it hasn't been.

New garden

Having a large garden in a new county this app has been invaluable at helping me identify plants and understand how to nurture this beautiful place
