Plant Base
Online (beta)
Find plants by name:
This is the start page for our online plant database. It's a new
project for us, although it uses information from our established
plant encyclopeadia software.
Enter all or part of the name
Tips:
All names are searched, botanical (latin), common names and also synonyms. Note however, that results are always listed by the current botanical name - if you get unexpected plants in the result list then it will be due to the search term matching a common name or synonym.
Names are matched from the beginning and all plants containing the search term are returned. For example "Rhodo" will list everything under Rhodochiton, Rhododendron, Rhodohypoxis and Rhodotypos.
You can also use * (asterisk) as a "wild-card" anywhere
in the name, including at the beginning.
Cultivar names may be entered with or without enclosing single-quotes,
though including them might give slightly more precise results.
For much greater control over the search, using a wide range of
criteria, please use the Advanced Search
page.
