Best free plant app

I’m awful at gardening but want to do better so I’m looking for an app to help me to identify and care for both indoor and outdoor plants. Any suggestions? I don’t want to pay!

Whatever you choose, don’t treat it as the final word. Whatever it says your plant is, google and read around and make sure the answer you have been given is sensible.

The Royal Horticultural Society is a comprehensive and reliable source of cultivation information.

Best free plant app? Probably @MereDintofPandiculation to be honest!

Just don't ask me about indoor plants, or named garden varieties, or lawns, or good ideas for borders, or any of a host of subjects! I'd always defer to @yamadori for trees, @NanTheWiser for cacti and indoor plants, and then there's a host of others including @Bideshi, @SarahandQuack whose advice is better than mine - and apologies to all the others I've forgotten to mention.

Oh, what a very kind post! I'm not sure it's true at all, but it made my day! Grin

You can always post on here to ask for help identifying a plant. You’ll get much more interesting answers and ideas than an app 😊

Thank you! I will definitely do that (although not tonight!).
