Hortus is growing. The more gardeners, partners, and researchers we have on board, the better the insights we can deliver, and the more we can help decision-makers help you build healthier, more connected neighbourhoods.
Everything a gardener can do on Hortus is free: the map, plant tracking, wildlife, bloom tools, community. No ads, no selling your data, and that does not change. Partner programs for nurseries, plant sales, and conservation organizations are free as well. If you ever pay us for something, it will be a real thing you chose, like a printed garden sign or a kit of native plants from a local grower. Never to unlock a feature.
Run a planting campaign with built-in impact tracking. Tag plants to your program code and see what happens after the sale, no surveys required. See what partners get.
Live data from real backyards, fully anonymized and aggregated. We never share individual gardeners or exact locations. Built for academics, urban forestry departments, ecologists, and landscape architects.
Building an app, conservation tool, or garden planner? Get in touch about API access to our curated native plant catalog.
