Greetings of peace!

I am Alexine Aquino, a senior from the Ateneo de Manila University, and I intend to conduct my thesis using plants, namely coffee berry cascara, which was harvested and dried in Davao del Sur. I would like to ask if it would still be possible to identify/authenticate a plant that is already dried although still in its full shape.

I am looking forward to hearing from you!

Kind regards,
Alexine Aquino
