Not useful

170,000 plants? More like a few dozen. I was very hopeful for this app to be useful and am very disappointed. Please update.

Not enough information

I am not a plant expert but I know there is probably thousands of species of plants this app doesn't even touch a hundred. I couldn't even find the aloe plant. I agree with the other reviews not enough info for $2.99. I will not delete this app because it does supply some information on a few of the plants that I want to get for my home but since I'm not really a plant person I will not find another plant app

What a waste!

If you have Wolframealpha, this app will be totally a waste of money. It simply based on the same computing engine.

Don't waste your money.

I love Wolfram Alpha so when they came out with a plant app I bit. What a waste of memory. It lists only a few species and you have to keep retuning the name to get the info. Very lame.
