design your own garden app

Andrew Montgomery

There's no denying that gardening is an occupation that throws up a lot of questions, and it doesn't matter if you're a beginner or a seasoned pro. Big projects like landscaping or planning a garden from scratch as well as smaller issues like plant identification or concerns about flowers all need information and it can be a nuisance to dig out a book to help you. Luckily, these days there's an app for everything and it's no different in the world of gardening. You can find a wide range of useful tools out there to help with any problem you might have. These apps make it easier to tackle the thorny world of garden design and maintenance. Whether you have a city garden, cottage garden or small garden and are looking to make a change to its structure, style or planting, these tools can aid you.

  1. Grow Your Own
    Who better to turn to for advice than the RHS? The experts there have created an app to help users plant, cultivate and harvest fruit, vegetables and herbs, with down-to-earth advice and useful tools to help you stay on top of garden tasks.

  2. Leafsnap
    As the name gives away, this app can be used to identify a plant based on its leaves. A vast library of close up, detailed shots will help knowledge-thirsty gardeners grow their database of plants, via an app developed by the University of Maryland, Smithsonian Institute and Columbia University.

  3. My Soil
    This app analyses your soil to work out its conditions and then give advice as to which plants will do best in your garden, ensuring perfect planting and full blooms every time. It's an essential for novices, or anyone looking to plant a particular species but unsure how it will fare.

  4. Garden Plan Pro
    Anyone looking to grow their own vegetables, plant a herb garden or harvest some fruits should look to Garden Plan Pro; simply plot your garden into it and then you can start planning out the planting areas. The app gives top tips for crop rotation and analyses weather local to you for optimum planting and harvesting dates.

  5. Smartplant
    So you've planted your garden full of glorious flora and fauna – now what do you do? Enter Smartplant, an app that can help identify plants but more importantly, you can use it to create a care calendar for what's in your garden, giving personalised advice on how to help everything flourish. Users can also chat with experts for further tips.

  6. iScape
    Channel your inner landscape gardener by using AR or uploading an image of your outdoor space and then visualising the end result by adding all the design elements from flowerbeds to paving and plants. A brilliant app for anyone wanting to DIY the garden renovation, or collaborating with a team as all the plans are shareable.

  7. Home Outside
    Better suited to those with more experience, Home Outside lets you mock up a design in the same way a professional would, using hand-drawn elements rather than augmented reality. It's a brilliant tool and extremely useful when planning colour throughout the garden.

  8. Home Design 3D Outdoor & Garden
    Another good app for design planning, Home Design 3D lets you plot out the dimensions of your space and build from there, adding everything from sheds to plants and furniture. Be aware that the free version does not let you save designs, so it's worth the in app purchases if you plan on creating your final design in it.

  9. Garden Tags
    Garden Tags is the app to use once your garden is planted. As well as plant identification, it has growing advice and plant care instructions so you can log every plant and be sure you're caring for it properly.
