Is there a way to change the type of plant you have? For example, I have a plant in my garden that was just sprouting when I used the identification tool on Planta. It said it was rosemary, but I can clearly see it was incorrect. I’m pretty sure it’s a woodland sage. But I’ve posted progress updates etc…. So I don’t just want to delete it and start over.

click on the plant from your location it's in, hit the settings button and scroll to "plant type". from there it will let you reassign the species
