I was pretty excited this evening to discover a previously unknown to me very nifty feature on my camera roll.

It began when I opened a photo of my wee pomegranate tree taken in the midst of repotting.

I must have scrolled down a bit more than usual because I was confronted with and option to Look up – Plant >.

There was nothing for it but to press the button (I am one of those “oooh, what does this thing do?” people).

And *boom* … it will return an identification!

Yes magical phone, it is a pomegranate! Though how it managed to survive and thrive in such a small amount of soil is a mystery – what a trooper! He’s in a much more suitable pot now.

Sometimes the identification is a bit off, but it is even doing well with some native Australian plants snapped on our recent hike.

I know what I’ll be occupying myself with over the next few days.
