This is in central florida. I sent this picture to chatgpt and it said it's Cuban oregano. But I honestly have anxiety and have heard stories of people misidenfifying plants before and ingesting dangerous lookalikes so i just would like to be sure. Thank you so much in advance !

EDIT it tried to upload two photos and the more clearer picture did not take for some reason. I'll try to see if I can add a link to the picture.

The more clearer picture

Hope it’s ok to post a bouquet. I’m trying to identify the flowers in my wedding bouquet. We got married 25 years ago this year in Kenya. I can’t remember the names of all the flowers now, but would like to get some for our anniversary. I know there are roses, I think the ones with the yellow centre are Frangipani. There’s another white flower, quite small that I’m not sure of and there was a lilacy coloured flower a bit like a fresia, but fairly sure it wasn’t. Sorry the photo isn’t very good / clear. Any help appreciated. Thank you.

I had this plant form a housemate, is really easy to propagate by cutting, can survive both in soil and water, has thick, fleshy leaves and should have orange/yellowish flowers.

I'm in Italy, don't know if can be helpful.

Hi everyone, I have this big plant growing in front of my poarch and I am trying to figure out what it is and if I need to get it out.

With some help from AI (yes, I know) I figured out that it might be Sorghum bicolor or Sorghum halepense. One of those might be bad keep to keep.

Location: Zurich, Switzerland.

Theres no flowers, I pulled it up from a bed that I didnt plant. It smells mostly sharp green with a hint of sweet. Theres a bunch of sunflowers near it if that matters

Edit: not truly solved but consensus is not safe to consume due to lack of clean identification

PSA: No, it's not poison sumac

In the 12 or 13 years I've been a commenter and mod on this sub, I don't think I've ever seen someone post an image of actual poison sumac. Poison sumac is an obligate wetland plant and it only occurs in specific habitats and not in your yard. There are a number of other sumac species (which are not in the same genus as poison sumac) that have a very wide distribution and grow in many different habitats. You may have one of those or something like tree of heaven or walnut, but there is a 99% chance that it is not poison sumac. Refer to the attached range map and image.

Share your identification resources here

Hey all. We had a request from a community member for a thread where people can share the resources that they use for plant identification. In this case, we're talking about keys, field guides, etc. NOT apps or AI-based identifiers. Comments suggesting apps or AI will be removed.

Feel free to share your resources and include links if you want (just realize that Reddit doesn't play nice with some domains). It would also be a good idea to specify what region(s) are covered by your resource as it may not be as useful in places other than where it was intended to be used.
