The ability to accurately identify plants is a skill that can be employed (and enjoyed) by a wide variety of people, from those with an interest in their local plants, foragers, to professionals wanting to assess the value of habitats for conservation, development and land management.
This intermediate course will guide you through what may at times seem like a daunting amount of botanical terminology, and help you to build confidence in using the vegetative key for successful identification.
