  • Collect Plant information easily

    If you are like most gardeners you love your gardening and collecting garden information, hints and tips from friends, family, and nursery experts.

    All of this information you collect over the years can now be saved in your own personal plant software. Use it as your life long guide and reference to all the things you have learnt about plants and gardening.

    You probably also buy a gardening magazine or two each month. With My Garden Pal software you can save the tips provided by the experts in these magazines into your own personal garden software and be reminded for years of these tasks. Use this information to build your knowledge year after year and turn your experiences into hands on knowledge

  • Set reminders to fertilize, water and prune each plant in your garden - garden planner

    Throughout the different stages of a plants growth your plants have different watering requirements. My Garden Pal software will help you get a plant established by reminding you of your plants watering needs as it grows.

    When first planted, your plant may require you to water it once a day lightly and then as it grows its watering needs decrease. By entering this information once, along with the age of your plant, My Garden Pal will automatically adjust your plants watering requirements and remind you of this as the plant ages. Set your data up once and let My Garden Pal plant software look after the rest.

    Likewise you can tell My Garden Pal when your new plant needs to be fertilized/prune and what type of fertilizer/pruning required - and then forget about it. My Garden pal plant software will remind you when and what to do for each plant in your garden. A unique Garden Planner.

    My Garden Pal software can even tell you when to prune your plant in order to get the most out of the growing season, or perhaps to reduce the spread of your plant. The same reminder function can also be used to set reminders for general garden or house tasks - for example, "Clean out the gutters every 6 months".

  • Search for plants by many different criteria

    My Garden Pal software has powerful and flexible search capabilities. For example you might want to search for drought tolerant plants, or plants that flower red in January, or a tree that will grow to 3 meters high.

    The search can be constrained to your own personal software index of plants or it can search our extensive online encyclopedia to find exactly what you are looking for.

    If you cannot find the plant in our encyclopedia, and you find this information elsewhere (a magazine for example) then you can collect the information in your personal software and then share this with the rest of the My Garden Pal community.

    My Garden Pal is very much community focused drawing on the expertise of ordinary people to build an extraordinary knowledge base for all gardeners!

  • Add plant information instantly from our online encyclopedia

    The community built gardening and plant knowledge available to My Garden Pal web club members can be added to your own personal encyclopedia easily with a few clicks so you can access information any time or anywhere.

    You can edit any of the information to suit your garden needs and beliefs and if you choose you can share your experience with gardeners from all over the world with the click of a button.

  • Track multiple gardens
