| Common weeds of the Carribean |

Amaranthaceae Boraginaceae Compositacea Convolvulacae Crassulacae Cucurbitacea | Euphorbiacea Labiatae Leguminosae Papaveracea Polygonaceae Verbenaceae |
Olivia drew these weeds in January 1998 in EL Limon, a small village in
the mountains of the Dominican Republic. Although this is not a
comprehensive study, because we drew the weeds which were easiest
to find, you'll see many of these plants if you spend time in the region.
We found Tropical Weeds by Cardenas useful, as well as
The
World's Worst Weeds by Hohn. An earlier version of our database,
including weeds that we couldn't identify, can be found
here.
We wrote descriptions of our weeds in XML and stored them in
MySQL,
a relational database. This site was generated with our software
WEEDS 2, based on Java Server Pages. WEEDS 2 is
freely available. We wrote a chapter
(read it online)
about this project for
Professional Java Server Programming from Wrox Press.
