How does SmartPlant work?

The SmartPlant is a plant care app provides you with a Care Calendar unique to you, your plants and your location as well as the necessary products for every month. SmartPlant will also be able to tell you how to tackle the seasons in your area. If you’re expecting extreme weather, you’ll be alerted with when and how to keep your plant safe. In case you purchase a plant from one of their retail partners, your plants are all automatically uploaded into the SmartPlant app as soon as you scan the barcode on your new plant!
The Care Calendar may notify you when, for example, it’s fertilizing or deadheading time. Or your plants may ask you for some protection from the cold, or for a companion plant to help ward of pests. SmartPlant is backed by actual plant-loving humans, which means you don’t have to drive to a garden store or spend all day searching online to help your plants thrive. Their dedicated plant experts will be able to identify your plant’s problems with a simple photo and get back to you with a cure.

Who are the creators of this cool SmartPlant app?

SmartPlant was originally called Garden Compass, founded by Bert W. Wahlen in 2013. Bert’s background is based in Marketing, Promotions and Media. His vision is for a brand that supports a greener earth and makes everyone’s life as easy as it can possibly be. The app solely provided plant/pest identification and quickly and organically became the #1 downloaded gardening app on the iTunes market worldwide. 50+ expert horticulturists globally on staff personally identity photo submission and provide personal attention and guidance for users.

Then in 2016, Garden Compass merged with a similar app based in the UK, known as PlantSnapp – brainchild of George Williams, a botanist with deep horticultural history and a passion for technology. One of the other Co-Founders of the PlantSnapp app in the UK is Angus Rankine – a serial entrepreneur and business angel/venture capitalist who founded and sold the very successful Leisure Pass Group. Now, these two companies are known as SmartPlant. SmartPlant provides plant/pest ID and remains connected to the 50+ experts plus the additional features of the SmartPlant Care Calendar, barcode scanner and the technology needed to soon connect to your Smart Home hubs.
