Plants Examples

Proposing a microformat to describe a particular plant, classified by its latin name. Plants all have common attributes associated with them related to appearance, growing conditions, disease, pests, maintenance etc. Many websites publish information about plants, but as yet this information is not open to exchange and aggregation.

To collect information on the current status of plant related information on the web. This information may then form the basis of a microformat proposal.
