If you can’t figure it out with this app stay home

I have a fair knowledge base for edibles but there are always new plants that deserve to be questioned. This app may not be 100% on every plant but it is as close as you will get. It could truly be a life saver.

It doesn’t mention that this is USA ONLY!

It maybe a good app, but useless now I’ve bought it, as I live in the UK. It doesn’t specify that this is USA only!

Needs photo identification

I had assumed that with this app you could take a picture and have plant identified. This app seems only useful if you already know about the plant.
