Landing page captured for the 2026-08-30 issue.

Field notes

How's It Growing collects gardener-submitted observations rather than relying on nursery estimates. Each record is intended to connect a plant's age, height and width with local conditions such as soil, rainfall and location. The homepage currently displays an Eremophila longifolia berrigan at 1.9 years, 1.4 metres tall and 0.8 metres wide, while also listing 2,429 species and subspecies in the broader catalogue.
