My new favorite app is Seek from iNaturalist. Point your phone's camera at a plant and the app IDs it. It's surprisingly accurate -- at least with the plants I know well enough to verify. Those that I didn't know are at least plausible.

@npub19ln…4rwe This is a bit off-topic but if you liked the 2001 version, you owe it to yourself to watch the 1967 Peter Cook & Dudley Moore original.

@npub1dm5…5sqe Especially the really big, really strong ones that can mangle a digit if handles carelessly.
