Has this ever happened to you? You're out walking with your daughter. She finds a beautiful flower,quizzes you on it, but you're stumped—you occupy no idea what it is. Instead of having to confess you don't know, or what if you could quickly identify the flower or any other plant wherever you happen to be? But how?
