Your garden, your rules. Most gardening apps either tell you too little or overwhelm you with reminders you never asked for. Garden Keeper is different. It’s a smart, elegant organiser for every plant you grow — as simple or as detailed as you want it to be. For every kind of gardener Whether you’ve been gardening for thirty years or just brought home your first plant, Garden Keeper adapts to you. The experienced gardener uses it as a personal archive — storing cultivation secrets, tracking seasonal tasks, organising decades of knowledge in one place. The beginner uses the AI to understand their plants, learn what to do each month, and build confidence one log at a time. Same app. Your level of detail. An intelligent archive that works for you Plants — Every plant gets its own profile. Scientific name, family, exposure, flowering months, hardiness with temperature explained, soil, watering, pruning, propagation. Fill in what matters to you — nothing is mandatory. Then filter your entire garden by flowering month, position, plant type, or sun exposure. Find out which plants are blooming this month, which ones live in your back garden, which ones need attention. Your garden, always at a glance. Calendar — Plan every month the way you want. Add tasks manually based on your own experience, or let the AI generate a full seasonal calendar for any plant. Filter by month, track progress from To Do to Done, and never miss a pruning window or feeding schedule again. Journal — Log what you do in the garden. Watering, pruning, fertilising, treating, observing — linked to a plant, linked to a product, dated and saved. Use Quick Log to record an activity in one tap directly from your plant list. Over time, your journal becomes the most honest record of how your garden actually grows. AI Generation — Don’t know the hardiness rating of your new rose? Not sure when to prune your wisteria? Tap Generate and Garden Keeper fills in the complete plant profile — scientific name, soil type, flowering months, seasonal tasks and more. Choose Standard for a clean overview or Detailed for a full botanical profile with month-by-month care calendar. The AI speaks your language — content is generated in your device language automatically. Knowledge — Save every article, guide and link worth keeping. RHS pages, YouTube tutorials, your own notes. Link each resource to the relevant plant and find it instantly when you need it. No more lost bookmarks. Products — Track every fertiliser, pesticide and compost in your shed. Record purchase dates, add dosage notes, link each product to the activities and tasks where you used it. Over time, you build a personal record of what actually works for your garden. Built on observation, not timers Garden Keeper doesn’t tell you to water your orchid every seven days. It teaches you to read your plants instead. Log what you observe. Record what you do. Build a real history of your garden over time. No pressure to fill in every field. No reminders you didn’t ask for. No algorithm deciding what you should grow or how. Just a clean, elegant tool that grows with you — and helps you grow better. Garden Keeper. Organise, learn, grow.
