Orchid records carry real structure: genus, grex, clonal name, awards, parentage. Leafolio keeps every part in its own place, with bloom photos, vendors, and divisions attached to the plant they belong to.
Orchid people rarely own a tidy collection. They own a grex here, a sibling cross there, three divisions of the same clone bought from three different growers, and a flask of seedlings waiting on a name. The plant matters, but so does everything around it: who bred it, who you bought it from, and how it bloomed the last time it opened.
That is the part a plastic stake cannot hold. Leafolio is built to keep the orchid and its history together, so the clone, the award, the parentage, and the bloom record stay with the plant for as long as you grow it.
Not rigid app fields, just the things this community tends to write down. In Leafolio they live with the plant, however much detail you want to add.
Genus, grex, and clonal name live in their own fields, so a full name stays whole and searchable.
Keep clonal names and award designations with the exact plant they belong to.
