Plant taxonomy: How to classify & name plants
You probably don't need to know the exact scientific name for every plant you work with, but a basic understanding of how plant taxonomy works is a must for any serious gardener. In this episode, you'll learn how to name plants, how plant families work, and what on earth plant taxonomy and binomial nomenclature are.
John Mason is the guest on Plants Grow Here podcast, and he's the creator of ACS Distance Education and a founding and current board member for the Australian Garden Council. He's passionate about taxonomy because it's so often not taught at a trade level for many formal qualifications.
Whether you just need a refresher, or you need an intro to this fundamental part of horticulture and botany, this episode will help you upskill as a horticulturist.
