We are diligently working to populate all the data in this new plant database. Please be patient with us as not all features will be fully functional and accurate until this work is complete.The NC State Extension Gardener Plant Toolbox is based on evaluation of plant databases around the world, surveys of Extension agents, Extension Master Gardener volunteers (EMGVs) and plant database users, and focus groups.Based on themes gathered from this data we have created an innovative tool for gardeners, EMGVs, extension staff, landscape professionals, university staff, and students. The primary goal of the plant database is to help consumers select plants that will bring them joy, provide a valuable function in their landscape, and thrive where planted.Users are encouraged to consider year-round functionality and potential disease and insect problems as part of their selection process.To learn more about Plant Identification take one of the 6-week, asynchronous, fully online, self-paced, non-credit courses we offer in partnership with world renowned Longwood Gardens.* Understanding Plants* Edibles, Bulbs and Houseplants * Annuals, Perennials, Vines, and Groundcovers * Trees, Shrubs and Conifers Disclaimer: The list of poisonous plants on this web site doesnot necessarily include every poisonous plant that is known, or that mightbe found in an urban landscape or home.
