Question 1

Can Botan identify grass types by photo without seed heads?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Botan’s identification tool relies primarily on blade shape, texture, color, and stem structure, not seed heads, so the app returns accurate results at any point in the growing season.

Question 2

What if the identification result seems incorrect?

Accepted Answer

Try retaking the photo at ground level in natural daylight with a clear view of the blade base and stem. If the result is still incorrect, the app provides an option to report the identification so the botanical dataset can be reviewed and refined.

Question 3

Can I identify ornamental or native grasses?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Botan’s database includes ornamental grass varieties and native species, not just common lawn types. This makes it a practical grass ID app for garden lovers, landscapers, and ecological restoration projects.
