Default Please name a website that I can identify the flowers in my garden?

I am a total novice gardener and I have just moved into a house with a beautiful garden, I am also a childminder and need to be able to identify all plants in my garden for ofsted as some plants/flowers can be hazardous to children. I need a website that will just show me pictures to identify from other than ones that ask for a name as I haven't got a clue.Please help.

Why not pay a visit to your local Garden Centre. Ask them if they would be willing to come to your house and identify some plants for you. I own a Garden Centre and I do this on a regular basis. I also tell customers when and how to prune if it's needed. These customers tend to call back when they need something.

Once you know the names of the plants then you can visit the RHS site and look through their list of poisonous plants. It's better to do it this way as some safe plants can look the same as poisonous plants and you could end up digging out the safe ones and leaving in the poisonous ones.
Hope this helps you.
