I just added a picture of a young Sycamore to the DB. The choice of seedling didn't seem quite right as it is more of a sapling. Can sapling be added as a choice??? either that or add sapling to the seedling choice

I second this; I also would like to see 'plantlets' since I recently had this issue with this Furcraea picture.

Right now it says "Seedlings (newly germinated plants)" but maybe we could change that to "Seedling or Young Plant"?

That would work and then a description could be added to specify.

I googled and found the definitions of each as shown below ... so I think seedling or young plant would work!

Sapling: NOUN - a young tree, especially one with a slender trunk.
Seedling: NOUN - a young plant, especially one raised from seed and not from a cutting.
