with links to pages with entries about them
By Botanical name:Plants are listed in alphabetical order of their Latin name on the following links:
A~B~C~D~E~F~G~H~I~J~K~L~M~N~O~P~Q~R~S~T~U~V~W~X~Y~Z This hopefully lists all the plants with entries somewhere on this website. In some cases, there are links to images which have not yet been included. Apologies for this, but I do hope to put all the images up eventually. Clicking on the link to 'Seed' will take you to the charts of seeds sorted by size and shape. If the seed isn't included in the chart, it may be in the Database, which you can get to by clicking the link to the Seedpod.
By Common name:
Plants are listed in alphabetical order of their Common Name on the following links:
A~B~C~D~E~F~G~H~I~J~K~L~M~N~O~P~Q~R~S~T~U~V~W~X~Y~Z A lot of the plants referred to on this website don't have common names, or your common name may be different from mine, or the same common name can apply to several different plants, so this list does not include all the entries on this website. Plants usually referred to by their botanical name (e.g. Zinnia, Dahlia, Cosmos) are not included in the Common Names Index. Entries about these plants can be found by scrolling through the botanical names, which are in alphabetical order.
Because several species of a genus may all have the same common name, only the first entry is listed here.
If you're looking for information about a plant, and only know a common name, it might help to find the Latin name, as there might be information here about another member of the same family with a different common name or with no common name, and the germination method or look of the seedpod, seeds or seedlings might be similar.
You can also use the Common Name Index just to find the Latin name of a plant.
Need Help?
If you still can't find what you're looking for, perhaps because you know a plant by a different common name from the one listed or the botanical name has changed, try searching here:
Note:
There are a lot of entries here, and I hope at least most of them take you to the right page. If you find a link that doesn't, please let me know, so I can correct it. Thanks!
