FieldGuide - Native Plants
Reference
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Now available worldwide! Identify native and invasive plants instantly, with support for 12 languages.
Know your plants. Protect your land.
Field Guide: Invasive Plant ID uses your camera to instantly identify plants and tell you whether they are native, invasive, or non-native to your region — now available worldwide in 12 languages so you can make smarter decisions for your garden, trail, and local ecosystem.
-- HOW IT WORKS --
1. Point your camera at any plant
2. Take 1-3 photos for best results
3. Get an instant ID with native/invasive status, origin story, and ecological impact
-- WHY IT MATTERS --
Invasive plants cause over $120 billion per year in ecological damage in the US alone and threaten biodiversity worldwide. They crowd out native species, disrupt wildlife habitats, and degrade waterways. Most people can't tell the difference — until now.
