按特徵搜索
依特性開始新搜尋時，請檢查所有欄位是否設定為預設「無偏好設定」。若要產生符合專案需求的自訂植物清單，請使用下拉式功能表填寫「依特性搜尋」表單，然後按一下 " 提交。"您可以將任何設定的欄位保留為預設「無偏好設定」。在更多領域中進行選擇將導致更短但高度特定於地點的物種列表。
例如，您可能需要一份位於哈利法克斯縣（地區）的草類（植物類型）的列表，這些草類的高度低於3英尺（最大高度），並且生長在陽光充足（光照要求）和乾燥的環境中（水分要求）。或者您可能需要一份位於切斯特菲爾德縣 (地區) 陰涼處 (光照需求) 潮濕土壤 (水分需求) 中生長的蕨類植物 (植物類型) 的清單。
每個欄位只能為查詢選取一個選項。如果您有多個棲息地的地點，我們建議您對每個棲息地進行單獨搜索。例如，您的某些網站可能是陽光充足和乾燥的土壤。您網站的另一部分可能是全陰涼和潮濕的土壤。
第二個選項是進行一般搜索。選擇您的地區，並將土壤需求和光源要求設置為「無偏好設置」。將結果下載為一個電子表格，並使用您喜歡的試算表軟件來調整列表。
對於結果中的每種物種，您將看到一個特徵表。若要查看更多資訊，例如廠房供應商名稱及其網站的連結，請按一下 " 更多詳細資訊。"
按一下「下載結果」按鈕，即可將查詢結果下載為 CSV 檔案。結果也可以從瀏覽器的「列印」選單中打印。

Search by Name
For information about a particular native plant species, enter the Common or Scientific name in the appropriate field. As you type, you will see suggestions appear. You may choose one of the suggestions or continuing typing the complete name and click “Submit.”
Species names in the solar plant finder application are from the Flora of Virginia and the companion app (iOS and Android). Help for finding correct scientific names for plant species can also be found in the Digital Atlas of Virginia. Links to species corresponding Digital Atlas page are in query reports.
If your species search returns no results using the Common name field or Scientific Name field, it might be found by using the Synonym field. The Synonym field searches older or alternate scientific names. However, the database does not contain all possible alternate names so if your species name is not found here you can try searching the Digital Atlas of Virginia Flora for the Flora of Virginia species name. Please note that the Digital Atlas of Virginia Flora includes introduced and rare species not appropriate for planting projects.
If you are unable to find a specific native plant when searching a correctly spelled name, it is possible the species was purposely excluded from this database due to its rarity or other concerns and is not recommended for planting or growing. We suggest using the Search by Characteristic form to find similar plants for your site needs.
Query results are downloadable as a CSV file by clicking the Download Result button. Results are also printable from your browser's Print menu.
