Plants were never created to be named (if they were created). They simply don't need our names to multiply. Perhaps only to survive in order to put them on a red list. We need them to inform you what is of our interest: Their beautiful flowers, their heaven-send fruits, or - perhaps less thrilling - the process of naming and classification.

Plantillustrations.org is dealing with the latter. But don't be disappointed at the first glance. Without those - constantly changing - botanical names you will never get access to any additional information, like old prints, monographs or long forgotten inaccessible illustrations. So see and use it as a tool, not as a taxonomic treatment.
