Thread: Using a string when creating an object.

Say I have a list of plants and a bunch of plant<Plantname> classes.
I want to be able to use a plant from the array to create an object for referencing a plant<Plantname> class.

My first class.

public class plantList{
	public static void main(String[] args){
		String[] plantList ={"Tree","Bush","NotherPlant","NotherNotherPlant"};
	}
}

My other classes go along these lines:

public class plantTree{
	String Color=Brown,OtherStuff=DescriptionOfOtherStuff;
}

I wish it was as simple as putting:

plant(plantList[/*number*/]) goplant = new plant(plantList[/*number*/])

This is obviously not the actual stuff I would put in here, but just an example.

How would I go about doing this?
