• After the initial 2 hours "What's that plant?" will contact you for confirmation to continue with the identification process. 
  
• An invoice will be forwarded to you via email and can be paid by check

About submissions:  

To accurately identify your mystery plants we need information.

Written information (i.e. habitat, growth habit), whether you are sending a photo or plant sample, is  important for identifying your plant.

Photo submissions: 

• send several photos taken from various angles. 

• include a common item in the photo (i.e. pen, coin) for terms of reference

Plant submissions:

• send several plants (do not include soil)

• press individual plants/plant parts flat against a file folder/cardboard and tape the entire sample with clear packing tape

• do not send plants wrapped in plastic

• plants deteriorate quickly so it is recommended that samples be send by courier

What's that plant? is an identification service only.  

No management advice will be given.   "What's that plant?" is not responsible for any actions taken based on the identification information given.
