Add What You Know To PlantID.net

 

PlantID.net is a community project that builds on the contributions of others. 

 

You can share what you know so others can enjoy learning it:

 

·        If you see a mistake, an awkward phrase, or an opportunity to add a new fun fact, email Bruce.  This is especially important now, as we’re adding so much new descriptive content.

·        Write a short article comparing similar plants you know about. For instance, see http://classic.plantid.net/LinkArticles/Manroots.htm  comparing Manroots.  Send it to Bruce and he’ll link it to the appropriate plants to show in the Plant Page.

·        Create your own Illustrated Plant List easily with Clipboard to ID.  For instance enter the plants you’ll find at your local stream restoration project.  Collaborate with Bruce to publish your list if you think others would like to see it.  

Consider adding local park and CNPS plant lists.

·        Collaborate with Bruce on photo essays.  We’ve got good numbers of photos and database facts but we need more stories and fun ID tips to make compelling presentations. 

o   Send materials you think would be useful.

o   Review new photo essays for clarity and accuracy.  My biggest fear is my descriptions will not be as reliable as the database and photo ID information is.
