Sprout Evergreen — Plant Care

Most plant apps ask how often you want reminding. Sprout works it out.

A houseplant companion that sets plant care and watering reminders for each plant, from what it is and where it lives. Free, with no account, no ads and no subscription.

Every plant care schedule starts from care data for the species you own: warm and cool season watering intervals, a feeding cycle, ideal light and toxicity for some of the most common houseplants. Sprout then adjusts it for where each plant lives: pot size and material, drainage, how bright the room is, which way the window faces and the season where you live. A Monstera in a 24cm terracotta pot by a bright window dries out faster than one in a plastic pot in a dim corner, so it is watered sooner. Every schedule comes with the reason behind it.

Watering that follows the weather
Set a location and Sprout reads the local forecast. Before a hot, dry week it offers to water two days sooner, and before a cool, wet spell two days later. You approve every change.

Draw your home, find the light
Start from a layout, draw your own floor plan or trace a photo of one, then tap the walls that have windows. Point north with the compass, or tap the window that gets the morning sun. Sprout works out how bright every spot is, including rooms that borrow light through a doorway, and plays the sun through your windows today, at midwinter, the equinox or midsummer, with the hours of direct sun each spot gets. Pick up a plant and the floor shows where it grows best, or let Sprout find a spot for every one. Then see your home in 3D, lit by the same sun. Sprout also tells you when a plant is in the wrong light.

A plant doctor for when something looks wrong
Yellow leaves, brown tips, drooping, sudden leaf drop, fungus gnats. Pick the symptom, answer a few questions about what else you are seeing, and Sprout ranks the likely causes, weighted by what your species is prone to. Each cause comes with clear steps for what to do about it.

Pet safe plants, stated plainly
Tell Sprout you have cats or dogs and it flags what is toxic to them. Every plant is rated separately for cats, dogs and people, because the same plant is not equally risky to each. One tap in Discover shows the ones safe for both.

Find plants that suit your rooms
Browse the plant library with photos, care needs and toxicity for every species, and see which plants suit the light in your rooms.

A plant care journal worth keeping
Every plant gets a diary and a growth chart: photos, measurements, repotting, problems and milestones. Propagation guides show how to grow new plants from the ones you have.

One reminder, only when it matters
At most one notification a day, and only on days something is due.

Private by design
No sign-up, no analytics and no server of Sprout's own. Your plants, photos, diary and schedule live on your phone and are never uploaded. The only thing that leaves is an approximate location, rounded to about a kilometre, sent to the weather service for your forecast.
