You can be the person that knows all the plants!

Would you like to be able to identify plants quickly and easily by sight, even the difficult ones that you’ve never seen before, and be confident in your identification?

Let me tell you how!

Key Skills for Easy and Accurate Plant Identification:

  • Learn plants in Groups – Learn to identify plants the easy way – in groups! Don’t scouring plant ID books trying to find plants one at a time. When you learn the characteristics of a whole group of plants all at one time, you’ll learn to recognize hundreds if not thousands of plants all in one step.
  • Botany Basics – Get to know the two main types of flowering plants and the parts of the flower are essential to identifying any plant in the world.
  • Most Common Plant Families – Learn how to recognize the most common plant families found in North America and around the world.

Tools to help you identify any plant:

  • Plant Identification Guide – Not all plant identification guides are created equal. Finding one with a plant key that you find easy to use is important. Click here to get our recommendations for the Best Botany Resources. for plant identification.
  • Botany Journal – Begin keeping a small notebook where you can record each plant you learn, where you found it and when, and document any photos you took. I like these little brown kraft journals. They are lightweight and easy to pack wherever you go.
  • Online Resources – Use websites like Wikipedia or state University extension offices to look up the taxonomy of each plant. Pay particular attention to the plant family. Once you know the plant family, you’ll be able to see characteristics that it shares with other plants within that same family, which will help you be able to recognize it more quickly and easily.
