The Plant Observatory
This site was created by Kwan to document his collection of tree related photos. It helps us identify the plants in Singapore. He has amassed a database of 1500 plants since 2007 on this website.
It catalogues by botanical names, common names, plant family and plant grouping.
He has expanded into field trip series and nature observation series to share his encounters during his field trips.
On his terms of use page he described how he started the site and the difficulties encountered in cataloguing the plants. He uses only his own photos, so we can imagine the amount of time and effort involved. He demonstrated a passion for nature very rare in our materialistic environment.
