Will this plant grow in my yard? How do I care for each of my plants? I follow the guidance on the printed plant tags but seem to struggle - what am I doing wrong? What are appropriate companion plants to supplement my landscaping that are appropriate for my climate and location? What is this plant and where can I get one? These and many other gardening challenges are what compelled us to create PlantTAGG.
PlantTAGG is the smartest mobile gardening companion available. Our plant content is comprised of thousands of plant species and cultivars which we licensed from leading horticulture universities. Each profile is then hand crafted and curated by Master Gardeners to ensure accuracy, detail and credibility. PlantTAGG is uniquely able to localize suggested care tasks and tips specific for your geographic location using NOAA data, data science and 1500 care rules. Our algorithms compute a season map for your specific yard based on first/last average freeze dates, extreme heat, freeze and average temperatures, sunlight, precipitation and other local climatic data.
