Lindsey,
That looks great! I am doing something similar with my orchids. There are a couple things I would add:
- WHERE you got them along with the date.
- For plants that you have more than one, I would make an entry for each plant with photos of that plant.
- I would also add one higher classification, for instance, Haworthia are in the subfamily Asphodelaceae, as are Aloes and Gasteria.
- I would put fewer per page so you can go back and add photos of blooms and make notes on individual plants. I have one plant per page in my orchid journal.
- Group them by family and then by genus: All Stapeliae together then within that group, Stapelia, Huernia, Hoodia... (by the way, the little prickly sunburnt one might be Hoodia)
With time, you will see the relationships between plants and the characteristics common to families and genuses.
