Versioned identity and credit

Companion Plant Provenance

A companion plant can move through many hands. Provenance preserves each documented contribution separately, shows its supporting evidence, and allows reviewed corrections without silent overwrites.

Current public foundation

371 sourced plant identities

Every published catalog photograph links to its original source, named photographer when supplied, and reuse license. Botanical, breeder, selector, and seller claims remain unpublished until their own evidence reviews are complete.

Public provenance profiles will appear only after the claimed identity and contribution chain is reviewed. The internal workflow, evidence model, and correction controls remain ready while expert review continues.
