Sources and review
Published plant profiles and articles name their sources and show when the guidance was last updated. Direct institutional, academic, public-agency and primary sources are preferred for factual horticultural claims.
Claims about toxicity, pesticides, disease and safety receive tighter limits. When evidence is incomplete, cultivar-dependent or region-specific, the page says so rather than presenting a universal rule.
Flora & Field is an organizational byline published by Subject House. It is not an individual identity or a claim of professional credentials. A verified person profile will be added only when the person’s identity, role, relevant background and permission to publish are documented.
What the dates mean
Published is the page’s first-publication date. Last updated records a material content change, such as a corrected fact, changed recommendation, new safety limit or substantial source revision. Minor spelling or formatting fixes do not change that date.
Reviewed is used only when an accuracy-and-completeness review and its responsible entity are separately documented. Automated schema, link, duplicate-copy and build checks do not by themselves qualify as editorial review. Pages without that evidence use Last updated rather than Reviewed.
Corrections
Material corrections are checked against the supporting evidence and accompanied by a new update date. Minor spelling or formatting changes do not alter the guidance.
Readers can report a factual error through the Contact page. Include the page address, the passage in question and a supporting source when available.
Independent scope
Each article answers a distinct gardening question instead of repeating a plant profile under a slightly different title.
Commercial relationships do not determine recommendations. Tool guidance is organized around the job, fit, maintenance and safety rather than affiliate placement.
