Stage of develeopment

The present version oft he database was primarily developed as an internal management system for Hohenheim Gardens. All accessions and plants are taxonomically checkes and classified according tot he Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG III). In cases of doubts the plants are post-determined. So far around 4900 accessions from 3500 taxa have been worked on and are released publically.

The programming oft the database itself is largely completed, it is already in use. Above we see our task in such a way that we make existing information available for students, scientists and the broad interested public.
