Please exercise care in the structure of queries and the use
of wildcards to avoid excessively large reports. See instructions below.
Display - What results will be displayed.
Sort Order- Indicates alpha-numeric sorting of results ( usually leave blank ).
Query by value
- Prop ID - this is the number used to identify this plant in the Gardens, on
the back of the label or on the aluminium tag.
- Herb Code - usually leave blank.
- Genus must have capital first letter ( ie. Grevillea ).
- species must have lower case first letter ( ie. robusta ).
- Num In Grp - the number of plants in a group planting. (Usually leave blank)
- Section Number - the location in the Gardens where the plant is growing, each
garden bed is given a 'Section Number'.
Execute query - Click to obtain results of search.
Reset Form - clears the entry ready for the next query.
Output Format - how you want to generate the results of your query. Leave as HTML for a web view.
Most fields are case sensitive and the wildcard is the percentage sign (%).
Leave a tick only in the 'Name' box in the left hand column, as that's all you want to
see.
- then put Eucalyptus% in the 'Query by value' field next to it.
- then click 'Execute Query'
Eucalyptus% means that you want any name starting with the word 'Eucalyptus'
(this will produce over 500 records ! )
By ticking only the 'Name' box, you indicate that you only want names, not
individual collecting records and bed numbers.
If you don't tick any box in the left column it will bring up all records of
all Eucalypts - a very large search that will take a long time.
A more complex search for all current and past planting records is also available.
