The archive
The Jamaican plant archive
Every record below is a master file: 40 fields of identification, parish-level distribution, growing conditions, edible and toxic status, cultural history, uses, and the citations that tie it down. A field is either cited or marked Research Pending — never fabricated.
How to read a record
Four evidence grades
A · Peer-reviewed — clinical, phytochemical, or taxonomic literature.
B · Documented tradition — ethnographic, herbarium, or community sources.
C · Inferred and D · Unverified — labelled, not used to support decisions on their own.
