PocketPlanter offers access to over 1,000 plant species on desktop and mobile. Choose from three databases of flowers and shrubs, including annual and perennial varieties.
With PocketPlanter, you are guaranteed to find almost every flower or shrub you are looking for. It boasts of a powerful search feature that enables you to quickly find what you are looking for. Additionally, the software lists common and botanical names, pronunciation guides, plant uses, form, size and growth rate, leaf descriptions, bloom season, fruit description, light needs, cold tolerance, soil needs, flower colors, names and descriptions of popular cultivars.
The software allows you to mark your favorite plants with a checkmark then limit the view to just show your favorites. Furthermore, it has a handy and easy-to-use tabbed layout that is user-friendly. The Planting Journal feature enables you to keep track of what you have planted, when, and where, as well as last watering and fertilizing dates, and more. The Gardening Diary gives you a place to keep up with your daily gardening life, and to track what plants are blooming together in what weeks of the year. You can even enter your own thoughts and text notes about each plant as desired.
If you choose to download the Windows companion version, you won't have to learn two different programs. This is because it looks and works just like the handheld version. It shares the same data with the handheld version, via the HotSync conduit. So, if you change or enter a record on the handheld, it syncs to the desktop, and vice versa. In conclusion, if you are an avid gardener or have an interest in botany, PocketPlanter is a must-have software for both your desktop and pocket.
