🌱 Plant ID · photo recognition

Identify any plant
from a single photo

Snap a leaf, a flower or the whole plant. We match it against a curated species library, then hand you a care guide — watering, light, temperature and feeding — written for real growing conditions, not textbook averages.

How it works

Three steps, under a minute.

1

Take or upload a photo

One clear shot of leaves, a flower or fruit is enough. Drag and drop works too — straight from your phone is fine.

2

Confirm the match

You see the top candidates with confidence scores. Pick the right one, or retake with a closer angle if none fit.

3

Read the care guide

Watering, light, temperature, feeding — plus the one mistake that kills this plant most often.

🔍

Three engines, one answer

Plant ID engines and a vision model are cross-checked, then corrected by real confirmations. The top match is rarely a wild guess.

💧

Care advice, not trivia

Every species in the library carries a hand-written card: watering rhythm, light level, temperature range, feeding, and the usual failure mode.

🌐

Bilingual by design

Switch between English and Chinese without losing the plant you just identified.

📈

Gets better with every photo

Confirmed photos become correction samples. After three distinct shots of a species, it starts feeding back into recognition.

Questions people ask

Is it free?

Yes. Identification and care guides are free, with no account and no paywall. Photos are kept only to improve recognition.

How accurate is it?

For common houseplants, garden flowers and vegetables the top match is usually right. When confidence is low we show candidates and ask you to confirm instead of pretending to be sure.

What happens to my photos?

They are stored on our server alongside the result, used to build correction samples, and never sold or published without the species label you confirmed.

Which plants are covered?

The library currently covers 240 species — houseplants, succulents, flowering shrubs, vegetables, fruit trees, ferns and common weeds. It grows every week.
