Flower encyclopedia

FlowerPedia is more than a collection of photos. Tap the "Flower" button on the photo menu to be presented with information about the flower:
- the flower Genus name (common and Latin)
- the flower Family name (common and Latin)
- its identifying features
- a list of related species
- more photos of the flower's relatives

FlowerPedia contains information about 100 families of flowers, with over 500 of their genera (groups of closely related species), which together represent over 100,000 species of flowers from around the world. 

Note, serious botanists be advised that FlowerPedia aims to enlighten casual lovers of flowers, using minimal botanical jargon. While accurate, it is not a botanically complete encyclopedia. 

Flower identification helper

Do you have trouble identifying flowers? It isn't yet possible to automagically identify a flower from a photo alone, but you can now do the next best thing: identify flowers based on a few simple parts of their anatomy, such as sepals, petals and stamens. It's clever, fun - and fully explained in the app's Help section! FlowerPedia helps identify flowers down to the genus level (a group of closely related species). 

No internet connection required

You can use FlowerPedia anywhere: even when you're out hiking, bushwalking, trekking or sitting comfortably in an airplane, because it does not require a network connection. All pictures of flowers are included in the application.
