Good things to include when you're trying to get a plant ID
Good things to include when you're trying to get a plant ID:
- A picture of the entire plant to show its overall growth habit and maturity (zoomed out)
- A close-up of at least one leaf filling the photo (multiple if there's variegation, or if immature leaves are differently-shaped than mature leaves)
- A picture or description of the petioles, or leaf stems -- for some IDs, especially philodendrons, it can make the ID very simple.
- Any new growth on the plant
- Anything else remarkable about the plant
- A description of whether the leaves are thin, papery, leathery, waxy, etc
