A lot of this is identifying plants and what they are.  Yes, I have used 
AIRA and gotten pretty good results with them.  I also have absolutely know 
problem using a search engine on the plants I do know the names of.  I 
mainly asked this question just in case someone might have known of an app 
that I was not aware of.

  Yes, there are tons of a]sites with accessible information about plants 
with all the growing instructions by searching for a particular plant name.



  I would first see if your local nursery has a web site, since they will 
likely sell plants that are good to grow in your region.



  Some plants will grow great in some regions and not others.



  Now, if you are in a situation where I have been before, when you moved 
into a new house with existing plants and you didn’t know what they were, 
that is where a nice plant identification app would be great.

  The next best thing, as I think about it, would be aira, who within a five 
minute free call each day should be able to look up a plant from a picture 
they could take with your phone’s camera and send you the info.



  Next, would be FaceTime or Skype with someone you know who could look 
things up for you and might know the plants.



  I have tried to find a reliable and accessible way to identify plants just 
from a photo, but it is tedious and somewhat hit and miss.



  Good luck,







  Richard

  As I said, there may not be an app for everything, but there are ton of 
websites with great information about how to grow plants and depending on 
what exactly you are looking for there are even many specific sites such as 
for Orchids etc.

  Apps are great for some things, but just because there isn't an app 
doesn't mean the information is not available and fully accessible on a 
website.

  And in some cases there might be an app and a website, one example is 
Amazon, I much prefer to shop using the regular website with Jaws rather 
than the app.

  My point exactly.  Right now what I am looking to learn more about, are 
not edible.

    Yes, 100 fruits and vegetables is a lot. But if you only grow flowers 
and shrubs, not terribly relevant.

      If it deals with vegies and fruit only 100 is quite a bit. Think of 
all the vegies you generally eat and I bet you start having to think hard by 
the time you get to 20 or so.

      Grow Your Own is current, it was last updated three months ago; but it 
says it only has 100 fruits and vegetables.

      Is that correct?

        hi,
        I've been using, for quite some time now, an app called "grow your 
own" I think it's from the Royal hotel cultural society in the UK. I don't 
know if it is updated to the latest iOS though. you could try searching for 
it on the App Store.
        Good luck, Sandy

          Hi all,

          Does anyone here know of an app that is accessible that you can 
enter in a plant name and find out information about that plant?  Watering, 
sunlight or not, type of soil and so on?  If so, I would love to hear about 
it.  Thanks much.
