Three steps to organise your garden
-
Draw your beds
Drag between two corners to draw a bed. Gestures snap to 25 cm and you can type exact dimensions in metres.
-
Place your crops
Pick from 88 vegetables, fruits and herbs and drop them in your beds. Dropping outside a bed changes nothing.
-
Track every plant
Record the stages you observe, from sowing to harvest. The plant’s 3D model follows your latest observation.
Everything you need to prepare the season
Two views, one garden
The 2D plan for precise placement, the tilted 3D view to picture it. Rotate, tilt and zoom with a mouse or your fingertips.
Accurate to the metre
Coordinates and sizes in metres, exact input fields and a list of beds and crops. Undo and Redo keep your last 30 actions.
Tracking without false promises
Plotilo keeps a history of what you observe, without inventing a calendar or harvest date: those depend on your region and the weather.
Your data stays with you
Your garden is saved on your device, and five copies are kept before anything replaces it. Export it as a JSON file and import it back whenever you like.
A community of gardeners
With an optional account, share a photo or a copy of your plan, viewable in 2D or 3D, and talk with other gardeners.
In English and French
The interface and the plant guides exist in both languages. Switching language keeps your garden.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account?
No. Your garden is saved on your device. An optional account is only needed to post and comment in the community.
