Traits

Group and habits

Edibility, toxicity and medicinal traits are records from datasets, not advice. Never eat, handle or use a wild species on the strength of an app.

Study it in a deck

Or build your own from the species near you.

Remember the name next time.

Practise European ash with real photos from different observers. Say the name out loud, and it comes back just before you would forget it.
