## What is GardenWise?

GardenWise turns your garden plan into a clear, seasonal routine.

Build your beds, choose what you are growing, and get a schedule shaped by your growing zone, frost dates, and actual planting dates. When life or weather changes your timing, GardenWise adjusts the active harvest estimate while keeping your original plan in view.

PLAN WITH CONFIDENCE
• Build and organize garden beds with an interactive planting grid
• Browse a practical plant catalog with spacing, companion, frost-tolerance, and planting guidance
• See a personalized weekly schedule for sowing, transplanting, watering, and harvesting
• Keep original target dates alongside your real planting and harvest dates

STAY ON TOP OF DAILY CARE
• Record watering or rain by plant group, not one square at a time
• View garden-aware weather, rain, and frost signals
• Track fertilizer, harvests, progress photos, and garden notes
• Keep seeds and supplies organized in one place

MAKE IT YOURS
• Customize frost dates and growing-zone details
• Export and restore your garden setup

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-09-21

Know why, not just what
Every watering, planting, and harvest reminder has a "Why this task?" link showing the frost dates, planting windows, days to maturity, recent rain, and bed conditions behind it. Don't agree? Change any of it.

34 new flowers
Spring bulbs (tulip, daffodil, crocus, hyacinth, allium, lily), native perennials (cardinal flower, wild bergamot, blazing star, Joe Pye weed, milkweed and more), garden classics (peony, bearded iris, hosta, astilbe, Russian sage), and easy annuals (impatiens, geranium, lantana, celosia). Fall bulbs are now scheduled for autumn planting.

Reminders that actually arrive
Watering and harvest reminders now fire on schedule, and seed reminders warn you before sowing day when a packet is missing, low, or too old.

Reminders tuned to each bed
Record mulch, irrigation, soil, and sun for every bed, and edit beds any time. Watering intervals account for thirsty crops, drip lines, sandy soil, and shade.

Missed something? No problem
Mark a late task done, postpone it, skip it, or record that weather prevented it.

Succession planting
Keep lettuce, beans, and radishes coming. Garden Wise plans repeat sowings and moves the next round up when you log a harvest.

Crop rotation warnings
Beds keep a year-by-year crop history, warn when a plant family returns too soon, and suggest what to grow next.

Pest and disease log
Record a problem with a photo and symptom checklist, see likely matches for that plant, then track every treatment and whether it worked.

Harvest insights
Record the variety you grew and see which ones yield best per plant, plus totals by crop type and CSV export.

Pollinators and native plants
Mark a bed as a pollinator bed for spring-to-fall bloom coverage, butterfly host plants, and plants native to your region. Pest advice includes bee-safe spray timing.

Seasonal journal
Several photos per entry, browsing by season, and year-over-year comparisons of the same season.

Lock Screen widgets
Watering tasks, your next harvest, and the frost countdown at a glance.

Frost protection
When frost is forecast, see exactly which plantings are tender, which beds they're in, and what to do before dark.

Apple Intelligence
On supported iPhones and iPads, AI runs privately on your device with no API key. It can now lay out a bed and place the plants for you. Your Claude or OpenAI key still works as a fallback.

Also improved
Guided setup covering zone, frost dates, beds, and crops. Clearer rain decisions like "0.8 in. rain recorded Tuesday, watering paused until Friday." Editable seed packets. Perennials and trees no longer ask to be replanted every spring.

### 1.1 — 2026-09-21

Know why, not just what
Every watering, planting, and harvest reminder now has a "Why this task?" link. See the frost dates, planting windows, days to maturity, recent rain, and bed conditions behind it, then adjust anything that doesn't match your garden.

Reminders tuned to each bed
Record mulch, irrigation, soil, and sun for every bed, and edit beds any time. Watering reminders now account for thirsty crops, drip lines, sandy soil, and shade instead of using one interval for the whole garden.

Missed something? No problem
Mark a late task done, postpone it, skip it, or note that weather prevented it. Held tasks come back on their new date.

Succession planting
Keep lettuce, beans, and radishes coming all season. Garden Wise plans repeat sowings and moves the next round up when you log a harvest.

Crop rotation warnings
Your beds now keep a year-by-year crop history. Get a warning when the same plant family returns too soon, plus suggestions for what to plant next.

Seeds linked to your schedule
See which sowings you have seed for, which packets are running low, and which seed is likely too old to germinate, with optional reminders before sowing time.

Pest and disease log
Record a problem with a photo and a symptom checklist, get likely matches for that plant, then track every treatment and whether it worked.

Harvest insights
Record the variety when you log a harvest and see which ones yield best per plant, plus totals by crop type.

Pollinators and native plants
Mark a bed as a pollinator bed to see spring-to-fall bloom coverage, butterfly host plants, and suggestions native to your region. Pollinator mode lists regional natives first and adds bee-safe spray timing to pest advice.

Seasonal journal
Add several photos to an entry, browse by season, and compare the same season year over year.

Guided setup
The setup wizard now covers your zone, frost dates, beds, and favorite crops, and you can re-run it any time from Settings.

Clearer weather decisions
"0.8 in. rain recorded Tuesday, so watering is paused until Friday." You can also set how much rain counts as a watering.

Apple Intelligence
On supported iPhones and iPads, AI answers now run privately on your device, with no API key and no data sent to anyone. Your Claude or OpenAI key is still used as a fallback where Apple Intelligence isn't available.
