Just a reminder to please add your LOCATION and to go easy on the down voting of incorrect aswers. Thank you!

Just a reminder per the guidelines to please remember to include your location. (Not including houseplants) This can really make a big difference as to whether you will get an id for your plant.

"Please include your location (except for houseplants). This is more important than the zone you are in. Certain plants only exist in certain areas. If you're not comfortable giving your city, town, etc. please at least give your state, region or country."

Also, could we please go easy on the downvotes for wrong id's. One or two downvotes and they will get the idea. It discourages participation.

"Please only downvote incorrect ID's if they have gained too much momentum and the correct answer hasn't been recognized. Instead, consider commenting with an explanation about why they are wrong so that they can learn from the mistake. Please DO upvote correct identifications and appreciative responses."

Thank you!

Hello. Was going over old Google photo pics and remembered a plant we found on a walk and I wanted to identify. This was in a very wet area on a walking trail in southern Maine. Thoughts?

Any ideas what it is? I started wedding the flower bed and noticed this one was starting to bloom. It’s definitely not a tulip or a daffodil like a lot of the other bulbs I planted have been.

I have no idea what this plant is. It’s lucky to be alive, honestly. I’m Charleston, SC- hardiness zone 8. I keep it in full sun in a pot until around November. Then all my potted outdoor plants winter in the garage. This plant had a tough winter. What is it. And, how should I be caring for it?

Found these seeds (I believe there seeds at least) in my grandma house while cleaning! They were just in a clear baggie. Curious if anyone else knows what they could be by any chance.

Think I might plant them just to see if anything does grow.

I goofed up and mislabeled my seedlings. Which of these are tomatillos, and which are tomatoes?
