WILD about gardening Encyclopedia
-

There are 575 plant species currently in the Encyclopedia.

The information in this encyclopedia is gathered from a wide variety of sources.

An effort was made to find all relevant information for any given plant but this was not always possible. In addition, all gardens differ and there are many factors which affect the survival of any plant.

Therefore, we recommend that you use the given information as reference only and refer to your local supplier for specific planting and care-taking instructions. Although we have included some non-native plants, we recommend the use of plants native to your region.

Ensure native plants are not wild-collected, especially for those plants where this is specifically noted. (Refer to Obtaining Native Plants for more information.)

Please refer to the field explanations for a clearer understanding of the significance and limitations of each of the fields.
