Plantin

Plantin is a plant identification and care platform available as a website and mobile app. It helps you figure out what a plant is from a photo, learn how to care for it, and troubleshoot common issues that keep plants from thriving. Whether you’re dealing with a mystery plant from a hike, a new houseplant with no label, or a struggling garden bed, PlantIn is built to guide you from identification to action.

At the center of the experience is the Plant Identifier: take or upload a picture and get a match along with practical care guidance. You can also browse a large plant database (7,430+ entries) and explore species using filters, then save and organize plants into customizable lists. Care information typically includes recommendations that help you make better day-to-day decisions—such as light needs, watering habits, and general maintenance—so you can build consistent routines and avoid common mistakes.

PlantIn also focuses on problem solving. If your plant shows signs of stress or damage, you can use dedicated tools to identify pests, diseases, and weeds, then review suggested next steps. For situations that are hard to diagnose, the app offers an “Ask a Botanist” option for more personalized guidance. Beyond the tools, PlantIn provides a blog with additional tips and learning resources.

The platform supports a wide range of plant types, including flowers, succulents, cacti, ferns, shrubs, trees, grasses, herbs, foliage plants, veggies and fruit, houseplants, aquatics, and even mushrooms.
