Inform your customers about their plants
Help customers find the right plant online
Most customers want guidance before they choose a plant and need care info after buying it, but many garden center websites only show limited plant information. That makes it harder for customers to compare options, understand care needs and feel confident.
With Open Plant Data, you can add a branded plant finder to your website with photos, filters and reliable plant data, so customers can find the right plant for their garden, balcony or home.
AI-based search function
Semantic search, not just a filter
Consumers don't speak horticultural language: you are not helping them if you ask them to choose within fixed categories, like Shrubs or Annual. But usually they have a good idea of what they want in their garden.
That's why visitors can simply search what they want, like "white flowers in Summer". Our AI-based search tool helps to find the perfect plant for their needs, without any efforts.

Key benefits
Connect online and in-store
Use the plant finder together with QR-codes, bench cards or product pages, so customers can continue their plant journey online and in-store.
From bench to web
Let QR-codes on bench cards link directly to plant pages or search results.
QR codes · Bench cards · Plant finder · In-store integration
Explore more online
Give customers more details than on a printed card can show, including photos, care information and inspiration.
Extra photos · Care data · Planting tips · Hardiness zone specific · Pruning
Connect your shop
Instead of linking a hosted plant finder, use your own URLs to link your webshop with bench cards

Plant care sheets
Sometimes, a printed paper works better than a digital file. You can use our platform to create plant care sheets for your customers.
Landscapers use this option to create an information-pack after creating a garden, to help customers look after their plants. Webshops add it to their orders to help customers with their plants. And garden centers hand these plant care sheets out in-store, if customers have questions.
Via the plant finder, customers can print their own care sheets directly from your plantfinder.
Use case: Trees throughout the year
A tree-focused nursery wanted to help customers understand how trees develop over time. A young tree in-store can look very different from the mature tree in a garden, so customers needed more photos across seasons and growth stages.
With Open Plant Data, each tree label includes a QR-code linking to a digital plant page with extra photos, care advice and pruning information. This gives customers useful guidance in-store and lets them return to the same information years later at home, when maintenance becomes relevant.
Why a plant finder matters
Accurate information reduces doubt and increases confidence. Confident customers buy more plants. Bench cards answer quick questions, the plant finder helps before, during and after buying a plant with more in-depth information.
