using inaturalist and uploading your observations also contributes to science :)

Try iNaturalist, it works pretty well. Also, learn plant morphology, makes it easier to narrow things down when you get a couple suggestions within the same genus or family.

Indeed, basic plant morphology knowledge plus some local Floras and iNaturalist worked out quite well for me in the tropics. There are also so many people that know plants on iNat. You only get into trouble of you try to ID rare species, but that’s also the case in the temperate zones.

As someone who uses iNaturalist and has a plant friend, I can confirm.
