Gardening computer program?
This question has probably been asked before, but I'm new to the newsgroup.
Is there a computer program in which one can set up a garden layout in the program and identify plants by location? That is, I want a birds-eye view of the garden, with each plant shown by an ID of some sort in its proper place. The ID symbols would be listed elsewhere and the plant identified. I have drawings of the garden, with the various plants identified in the beds, but when I add new plants and transplant others, the drawings become hopelessly muddled. Any advice would be most appreciated. -- Harlan --- [If you reply to my email address, please delete the word REMOVE from the address.] |

However if you make a plan of the garden on heavy duty paper, then lay transparent paper over that and put in numbers for each plant in pencil, you can then: 1) Keep derails of the plant in a spreadsheet 2) Rub out and re-write the numbers as you add or move things 3) You can also draw up totally new planting schemes without messing up the original plan of the garden.

Please see the url below for details. -- Max Wright www.plotcrop.co.uk |
