Free<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nBeware of toxic plants.<\/h2>\n
Apps can be wrong. Never eat a plant or wild fruit just because the app says it's edible, and confirm with reliable sources whether a plant is safe for children and pets.<\/p>\n
Basic care after identification<\/h2>\n
With the plant's name in hand, find out three things: how much light it needs (full sun, partial shade, or shade), how often to water it, and whether the pot needs a drainage hole. Most houseplants die from overwatering, not underwatering.<\/p>\n
A simple tip is to stick your finger in the soil: if the first two centimeters are dry, it's time to water. Yellowed and soft leaves usually indicate too much water; dry and crisp leaves, too little water or too much sun.<\/p>\n
Easy plants for beginners<\/h2>\n
Snake plants, pothos, ZZ plants, and succulents are among the most resilient and forgiving of oversights. They are good choices for apartments and for those who are still learning. Remember to check if the species is safe for pets before bringing it home.<\/p>\n
Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\nDo apps always get it right?<\/h3>\n
They correctly identify most common plants, but may be wrong about rare species or poor-quality photos. Use the result as a starting point.<\/p>\n
Which is the best free one?<\/h3>\n
PlantNet is free and ad-free. Google Lens is also free and very practical.<\/p>\n
Does it work without internet?<\/h3>\n
Generally, no: the photo is sent for comparison with the database.<\/p>\n
