Store plant information and pictures:

The application is installed entirely on your own computer, with no dependency on an internet connection. Therefore always available and under your control. A true read/write database is used and all plant data is fully editable by the end-user. You can choose to use the information as supplied, or change any of the content, or perhaps add your own plants and photos.

Comes fully loaded with thousands of plant records and pictures. Alternatively, specialist users may prefer to start with an empty database and then build their own choice of plant information. Content can be freely customised for specific needs, creating a uniquely personal plant reference resource.

Search:

Plant records may be searched by name and many other characteristics.

Each plant is described by a large number of standard elements such as size and colour, plus text notes. Plants may be searched by any of these as selection criteria. Plant records are sequenced alphabetically by botanical name (Latin, binomial), but can be located by their common name if preferred. There is also allowance for alternative names (synonyms). Selection results can be saved in personal plant lists for later use.

Keep lists:

The ability to save personal plant lists is an essential feature. They have many uses, from simple lists that 'bookmark' interesting plants to producing planting design project schedules. Each list may be freely named and there is no limit to the number stored. Lists can be easily exported for use in an external program if required.

Simple:

The application design is straightforward with a functional, no-nonsense approach to usability and considerable flexibility. There are no frills, but it is fast, simple to run and uses no unnecessary computer resources.

Equivalent editions are available for Windows, Mac and Linux, plus an Android app for mobile devices. All editions use the same database files, which can be copied between any computer type.
