Frequently asked questions

Is WikiPlant free to use?

Where does the care information come from?

Published horticultural and veterinary references. Toxicity: the ASPCA database, and where a species is not listed we write “not confirmed”. Hardiness and growing dates: the RHS. Specific sources are cited on the page.

Can I suggest a correction or a new plant?

Yes, please! Email contact@wikiplant.net with the plant and, if you have one, a source.

Do I need to create an account?

No, the care guides are open to all. A free account is only for the Marketplace and Plant Sitting.

What is WikiPlant responsible for in the Marketplace and Plant Sitting?
