But recently I discovered that there's a list of app in google play that you can install that will help you identify the name of a plant.In your mobile phone click go to Play store icon and type identify plants. Choose your desired application and install. It is very easy to use, just take a picture of the plant or you can also upload the photo then choice are given for to choose which plant on their archive resembles your plant. Also the app requires you to be connected to internet to access online record of plant.
The next time I buy a unfamiliar plant I'll make sure to bring my phone and double check the plants identity.
