Perennial siblings hunt

Question from Daisy Patch

For my Mum’s 80th birthday I want to give a her hardy perennial collection with our family names in (Philip, Margaret, Adrian) . So far I’ve found clematis (Prince Philip, Margaret Hunt and Adrian James) but I can't find Adrian Hunt anywhere. Does anyone know where I might get it? Or know of another hardy plant with those names (small garden)?

Improve Use Of Groups

Comment from David Scarle

Hi - like many other gardens I have lots of different borders and I use the "Groups" feature to segregate them; would it please be possible to select a group when adding a plant to the plant list, this would save lots of time when entering the plant schedule for a new group, current you have to add the plant to my list and then separately move it into the correct group.

Also it would be good if we could print / display Care Instructions by Group ... this would give us a "Work To List" for each bed.

Filter plants in Planner

Comment from Simon Berry

Wouild it be possible to filter plants in Planner (especially the desktop version) by Groups? Also, maybe the ability to search for a plant from those available in the list?

Too much data/info on the one page

Comment from Andy_CB8

Hello, I feel that there is now far too much information on the plants' information page for it to be useful — I have to continually search for the information I need, and I feel that the order of the information does not make any sense.

Could you not add tabs at the top which you would click on to get specific info, e.g. Overview, Care, Where to Grow, Defra's Risk register etc to break the info into more manageable chunks.

Button to switch from 'Plants I want' to 'Plants I have'

Comment from Kari Koonin

It would be great to have a quick and easy way to move a plant from 'Plants I want' to 'Plants I have', such as a Move button. At the moment you have to delete from one and re-add to the other when you get that plant you've been longing for!

Identifying Plants

Comment from Julie Macavoy

Would it be possible for the identifying plants area of the forum to show the photos of the plants within the list? This way you can scroll down and if you see something you are familiar with, you can reply. At the moment I have to open each post to see the photos. Also could there be a 'Next post' to go directly to the next plant to be identified?

Mobile version of the website

Comment from Andy_CB8

Hello, I find the mobile version of the website useless and I do not want to use it but you force it on me when I use shoot on my iPad. Please allow me to choose which version I want to see..!

me again - advanced search results sort order

Comment from John Bates

Hello Shoot
Just tried an advanced search using a genue name and not sure how the results are sorted by shoot. Could they be sorted alphabetically by genus, species, variety
That would make sense (to me) when visually scanning the list.
Thanks
John

Download plant names - missing data

Comment from John Bates

Some reason download plant names only works with "Plants I have"
If creating a plant list - I'd want to compile list & quantity in "Plants I want" but that seems to generate a blank excel form ?
Thanks
John
