Fancy Planties logs every watering, feed, and repot so you stop guessing. A care journal that reads your schedule, not the other way around.
Generic reminder apps will tell you to water everything on Wednesday. Plants don't work on Wednesdays.
Every plant in your collection has a different watering rhythm, a preferred season, a soil type, a light requirement, and a care history that compounds over months. A countdown timer doesn't know any of that. Fancy Planties does — because you've told it, and it remembers everything you've logged.
The care schedule adjusts as you log. A Calathea watered late in December gets a gentler January schedule. A Monstera you've repotted gets a 90-day settling window before the fertiliser reminder kicks back in. The app works from your plant's actual history, not a generic chart.
Everything your plants need you to track.
Log waterings, feeds, repots, flushes, and cleans with one tap. The history builds a picture of each plant over weeks and months — not just what's due next, but what you've done before.
Fancy Planties ships with care guides for over 200 species. Add a Monstera deliciosa and its default schedule is already sensible — adjusted for your climate zone and the season you add it in.
Track cuttings and offsets as their own entries. A propagation inherits the parent's species data, starts its own care history, and graduates to a full plant when you say it's ready.
Species pages cover light needs, humidity tolerance, common problems, and seasonal adjustments. Searchable, readable offline, and linked directly from each plant in your collection.
Small and medium widgets show today's due care at a glance. Check what needs water before you've had your coffee. Supports the iOS lock screen.
Each species guide is written and reviewed by a curator — someone with hands-on experience with that plant in real growing conditions. The guides aren't scraped from Wikipedia or generated by a model. They come from people who've overwatered a Calathea and learned from it.
Curators write the initial species guide, review community-flagged corrections, and update entries when care advice changes. A guide that's been approved by a curator carries that signal in the app.
Curation is open. If you have genuine experience with a species or group of plants and want to contribute a guide or improve an existing one, email support@fancy-planties.com with what you grow and what you'd like to cover.
