Help identifying your plant finds
There are over 3,000 species of wild plants in the UK, and many more grown in gardens and parks, so identifying them can be tricky. One of the great things about iNaturalist is that it can help identify plants for you using its computer vision technology, and there are lots of naturalists online that can help.
