Flower Colour Added To Network’s Flora Search Engine
Network website users can now use flower colour as part of the flora search.A database of flower colours, for almost all native and exotic vascular plants, has been added to the Network website. This can be used to narrow the search for a plant although due to differing perception of colour the system may not always work perfectly.
Two flower colours have been added for each plant, a Main flower colour and a second Other colour. Drop down lists of flowers can be found in the flora search column on the left hand side of the web page.
This database is not complete and feedback is welcome to plug gaps. Also, please let us know if you think we have made a mistake in the colour selections. This is a work in progress and will improve over time with feedback from users.
