Getting plants identified
r/PlantIdentification
About Community
Guidelines
Please do not ingest any plant, berry, or fruit because of information received in this subreddit. If a child or pet has ingested any of these please contact a Poison Control Center immediately! Feel free to post an ID request after contacting a Poison Control Center.
Please include your location (except for houseplants). This is more important than the zone you are in. Certain plants only exist in certain areas. If you're not comfortable giving your city, town, etc. please at least give your state, region or country.
Please post one plant at a time. Posts with multiple plants tend to get overlooked.
If your plant is identified, please respond to the answer or the post with "Identified!" or "Solved!" so Automoderator can flair your post as Identified!
Please only downvote incorrect ID's if they have gained too much momentum and the correct answer hasn't been recognized. Instead, consider commenting with an explanation about why they are wrong so that they can learn from the mistake. Please DO upvote correct identifications and appreciative responses.
r/PlantIdentification Rules
Unkind behavior will be removed.
Unhelpful content will be removed.
Please don't recommend or ask about the edibility or use of plants, fruits, etc. We have seen wrong ID's given out too often telling people that something is edible when it is not or has been misidentified. This can be potentially dangerous. Give the identification and let the OP do their own research. Edibility/medicinal recommendations/discussions will be removed.
Moderators reserve the right to remove content at their discretion.
YouTube videos will be removed.
Please don't post general gardening questions, activities, advertisements, buy/sell/trade etc. Mushrooms and fungi are not plants. Please post those to one of the several mushroom identification subs. r/mycology, r/mushroomID, r/ShroomID, or r/shroomery. Just plants that need to be identified. Unrelated posts will be removed.
This has been a controversial subject but we feel that enough people are offended by the term to warrant making it a rule. Posts and answers using the term will be removed. This is an article explaining the reasoning.
