  2. Look in books.

  3. Plants are named according to the Linnaen system which uses flower structure to categorise and provide the scientific name.You may be able to identify the genus from a leaf, if it is sufficiently distinctive, but you need a flower to be certain of the species. Botanical gardens in the area are the best source of information.
