Nerium
Nerium oleander is a shrub or small tree in the dogbane family Apocynaceae, toxic in all its parts. It is the only species currently classified in the genus Nerium. It is most commonly known as nerium or oleander, from its superficial resemblance to the unrelated olive Olea. It is so widely cultivated that no precise region of origin has been identified, though southwest Asia has been suggested. The ancient city of Volubilis in Morocco may have taken its name from the Berber name alili or oualilt for the flower. Oleander is one of the most poisonous commonly grown garden plants.
Senna bicapsularis
Senna bicapsularis is a species of the legume genus Senna, native to northern South America, from Panama south to Venezuela and Colombia, and also the West Indies. It is naturalised and invasive in several coastal areas in the tropics, including the Galápagos Islands and New Caledonia. Common names include rambling senna, Christmas bush, money bush, and yellow candlewood.
Copaifera langsdorffii
Copaifera langsdorffii, also known as the diesel tree, is a tropical rainforest tree. It has many names in local languages, including kupa'y, cabismo, and copaúva.

Most complete app I've found yet for edible and medicinal plants. My biggest complaint is listing them by their Latin names instead of most common. Although you can search by most common name, it's kind of a pain. The photos are hi res of you click on them which is great. However, it would be nice to have more photos and maybe commonly misidentified plants.
Hands down the best app for herbs. ive tried all the other apps out and they have hardly anything listed, probably only about 5% of what you have on yours. Very well done. Thank you so much for this! My only suggestion for improvement is an option to switch from scientific names to common names.
Good app, provides adequate information. It can be difficult with common names instead of the Latin scientific names. In that the common name is not always found.
Very good info but can you add filters and change the search feature please? Check out shroomify app for the best format I have ever seen! Adopt that style and your app will be number 1 untouchable!
Brilliant app for the budding herboligist or medicinal botanist. Complete break down, visual descriptions, uses, taxonomy of so many plants. I find this app more and more useful in my identification and expanding use of plants and herbs. Please continue to refine and update this most useful tool. Thank you.
This is the best app I've found so far for this. It gives a good detailed information I need when learning about these plants. Only peeve I could have about this app is that it lists all plants by their botanical name. And I'm bad at Latin.
There is no way to filter this list by region. Id like to be able to only see plants avalible in the Pacific north west. Other than that i like the app.
Limited even for the most common weeds. I typed in the actual botanical name for the weed and that was only available in a premium version got to pay for that information I guess $$ Google Images is free just spend a little more time searching and cross-referencing.
Been looking for this type of database and now I found it. Interface ran without a problem. I just like it so much as my first stone to a more intensive study reference.
I didn't know we had so much plants and herbs, God gave us all these so that we could live healthier, thank you for this app, it's very educational. Only thing is if the names could be english.
Very informative, but there's no way to search by ailments. For example, if I have a stomachache and want to find what can help, there is no option to do this
Unless you already know the scientific name of the herb you want to learn about, the app is fairly useless. And if you know the scientific name, you probably don't need the elementary description provided. If I could leave zero stars I would.
Beautiful illustrations complete and accurate information on everything. From plant botany habitats cultivation and geographic .and enthnogenic and traditional preparations and uses and even chemistry and structures. Great app thank you
Very helpful and informative. I wish they had separate sections between the plants and the herbs.
Unfortunately, the app offers no information as to what conditions these plants and herbs treat. It's really just an encyclopedia, so this natural healer will look elsewhere for a useful medicinal flora reference. I suggest you download a different app.
No filtering options,problems with unpacking,ads,no georgian language support.there are lot of competions, unless somethings changed i will not install this app again.
This is an excellent resource. I upgraded #2.99 Scientific bi- naming system catalog. I am hoping my common name searches will increase my knowledge...
The UI, herb/plant family , the use, even warning makes it very educative, safe to use information. The app is excellent.
Excellent app, having the latin name first choice, then common names in description perfect for herbalist use.
Pretty amazing plants and herbs app, it has alot of information on many many plants and herbs. Some of the information on some of the plants and herbs are in my own house and it describes what all it can and is used for and it's just a pretty amazing app. This is my opinion tho
Very useful app more than thousands of natural herbs presented in the app.. looking forward to update them and highlights main summarised note.
yarrow and usnea missing? very common and useful. i havent really even looked at app and already see its missing the important plants
Love it pictures and area they are indigenous to would help...best time to plant and harvest and how best to use would be helpful too
Has ads but not too intrusive. Very thorough collection of information.
Very Helpful . But I wish I just scan a plant photo and it should find me the plant details
This app is very good on a review aspect. I intend on exploring it more. Yes, I enjoyed this app.
It is a good app that has lots of herbs. It is fun to learn about them. The app is easy to use and I would recommend.
Very useful in searching for plants I need in my researching Profession.
