## What is GardenIQ Plant ID & Care?

GardenIQ helps gardeners identify plants, diagnose plant health problems, and keep care on track from one garden workspace.

Take a photo to identify a plant — common name, scientific name, confidence, and care guidance — or photograph yellow leaves, spots, pests, or wilt for a health diagnosis and treatment plan. You can try identify and diagnose before you sign in; create an account when you want to save plants, reminders, and history.

Scan nursery plant cards to pull species and care into your garden without retyping the tag. Organize plants by area, favorite the important ones, and keep reminders for watering, pruning, fertilizing, and custom tasks.

GardenIQ Plus is an optional auto-renewable subscription ($2.99/month or $19.99/year after a 7-day free trial) that unlocks unlimited plant health diagnoses plus a personalized Monthly Garden Report. Plant identification stays free. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
