### 5/5 — Insane How Good this is! I’m not kidding

*2026-03-30*

Holy cow. Talking to Garden Sage is like having a real conversation with someone who knows something about plants! Not only that, she knows where I can get a plant I’m hunting down near me. She helps with what to do with ailing plants or when does it need pruning or feeding. You can interrupt her and she quickly switches directions with you so you’re not stuck listening to something you’ve moved on from already . 

There’s a feature you can upload a photo of say a shelf in your house and she will suggest a good plant for it AND show you what it would look like on the shelf!
I’ve never experienced an app like this before. I feel like im living in the future in the best way. 

I’ve honestly been over the “there’s an app for everything” world we live in but this one is bringing me back. I actually WANT to use it, try to trip it up but I’m ending up recommending it to everyone I know 🤣

It’s new so I can see there are small things they are refining but updates come in fast and furious so I know things are getting fixed. 

If you have a plant…ANY plant, even just one I think you’re gonna like the help you get from this app 💚

### 5/5 — If you love plants, or not-this app is for you.

With expert advice available at your fingertips, it makes plant care easier and more accessible than ever. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced gardener, this app ensures your plants thrive. It’s great to finally have a tool that truly supports plant health and success!

### 5/5 — Best by far

*2025-01-16*

I truly am impressed with this app. It isn’t just about how it keeps my plants on track but the full picture of what I need and where I can find it.

### 5/5 — Simple yet fully packaged to make my life easier!

*2023-06-13*

I’ve been a previous user, but I never wrote a review before.
I love how the new look keeps my previous database and quickly displays my task. The new calendar shows all your tasks and lets you know when future care tasks are following. 
I love how they implemented the purchasing of plants and care supplies based on my zip code, so now I can get them straight from the app.
The app now asks when you last watered your plant so it can give you a personalized watering schedule based on it.
I can’t wait to see more updates!!
