Field notes
The interface combines a searchable plant catalog with a personal yard record and a habitat-feature checklist. Filters extend beyond basic gardening traits to include larval-host status, structural layer, ecological role, aggressiveness, and self-seeding. The page attributes plant listings to the Marquette County Conservation District, while the extracted view shows the inventory empty and the matching-plant area still loading.
