The Marin CNPS will have a presentation on using PlantID.net on Monday September 14, 2020 at 7:30 via zoom. To get the link contact the Marin CNPS at https://www.cnpsmarin.org/ to get the E-Bulletin.
PlantID.net is a website for people who see a plant in the wild and wonder about it. The site allows you to enter what you know about your plant (where you are, plant type, color, leaf arrangement, deciduous, has berries, etc.) and get a short picture-list of possibilities. Then you can dive down into photos and captions to learn more about your plant. There are also plant lists for local preserves and trails, lists for subgroups like Marin thistles and Marin dandelions, and thousands of photos and diagrams. All the different ways to identify native plants make it likely that you will find new favorites as you walk our local hills.
