Plant images

Owing to a damaged heel I have been unable to walk for a few days, so for something to do I have been going through my photo collection. I have thousands of images of plants and flowers ( not all grown by me  I hasten to add). I was just wondering if there was anywhere where people posted images of plants like that.
The Geograph site is great for pictures of places etc round Britain, but I feel there ought to be one like it for plants and flowers.

    Plantnet is a kind of citizens' science project that shares pictures and plant info. I've not had loads to do with it, but it seems to work well.

    Flickr is just for ones own images, I was looking for a Public site where pictures could be added to a Database for people to use, say a bit like Wikipedia for plants.
    Plantnet looks more like it
    Thanks

    You can still share some of your photos with us. It would be great to see them.

    I think @wild edges  might have some insight on plant databases

    Have sent  private e mail.
    Sorry, but you are very wrong re Flickr.
    It is an amazing database of plant pics.
    But maybe you have to log in to interrogate /find images.

    This forum is the same...to search you need to log on.
