Click the top picture for a large picture of the flower. Additional pictures may include fruit. fall foliage, etc. Plants aren't for sale until they flower. During the first inventory I take a picture of the labels only and save it using the inventory number as a file name. Once they flower I take a dated digital picture of the flower and and overwrite the label picture. If its not for sale it will show only a picture of the label. My hand measures 3.5 inches across the 4 fingers to compare flower size.
