Every gardener knows the heartbreak. You planted at the "right" time. You followed the book. Then a late frost took everything overnight.   Grow Daisy exists so that never happens again. Tell us what you grow and where you grow it. We'll watch the sky for you — sending planting reminders when your soil is actually warm enough, nudging you to water before a dry spell, and warning you when frost is creeping in. Not advice from a generic calendar. Advice from your weather, your garden, right now. YOUR GARDEN, IN RHYTHM WITH THE SEASONS: - Tasks that move with the forecast — rain coming Thursday? Skip watering today. Warm spell arriving? Time to get those seedlings in the ground. Grow Daisy adjusts your to-do list as the weather shifts. - Know every plant you own — track your whole garden with photos, notes, and growth stages. Watch your collection come alive through the seasons. - Snap and identify — curious about a plant? Point your camera and let AI tell you what it is. Works for garden plants, wildflowers, and that mysterious thing growing by the fence. - Plant friends together — companion planting guilds help you build combinations that protect and nourish each other. Free for everyone, because great advice shouldn't cost a thing. - Your garden story — a photo journal that captures the journey. First shoots in spring, summer abundance, autumn colour, winter rest. Years from now, you'll be glad you kept it. - Plant at the right time — a planting calendar tuned to your local climate, not a national average written for someone 500 miles away. Available in English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, and Portuguese. GO DEEPER WITH PREMIUM: Grow Daisy is generous at the free tier. But if you want the full picture: Sprout — 75 plants, 7-day forecast, 20 AI IDs/month, photo library, data export. Bloom — our most loved tier. Unlimited plants, 14-day forecast, soil temperature at depth, 48-hour frost alerts, smart watering, and wind-aware tips. Harvest — everything in Bloom plus yield predictions, crop rotation, analytics, AI garden expert, and team sharing. Orchard — for serious growers, allotments, and professionals. Unlimited everything. All plans include a free trial. Cancel anytime. REAL DATA FROM REAL STATIONS: Your weather comes from the same professional services used by farmers. Soil readings from real stations, not estimates. We built Grow Daisy because we were tired of gardening apps that ignore the most important thing: what's actually happening outside your window. MADE BY A GARDENER (AND HIS DOG): Grow Daisy is built by one developer and his dog Bruno, from a garden in Spain. No ads. No data selling. Your plants, your photos, your records — all yours. Delete your account anytime and everything goes with it. Four quick questions. That's all it takes to set up your garden. Grow Daisy handles the rest — so you can spend less time worrying and more time with your hands in the soil.
