One yard, a lot more clarity

Plan the whole garden,
not one plant at a time.

LeafLocus keeps every decision in context: the size of the yard, the plants already growing there, and the conditions each new plant will live in.

01

Yard-scale planning

Put every plant in its place.

Import a yard image, calibrate a known distance, and place trees, shrubs, perennials, and groundcovers at a meaningful scale.

02

Growth preview

Make room for what comes next.

Compare current and mature sizes, scrub through future growth, and spot crowded canopies before planting day.

03

Sun & shade

Follow the light.

Set north and an approximate location, then move through the day to see shadows shift and identify likely light mismatches.

04

Seasonal context

Design beyond peak summer.

Preview climate-relative bloom, fall color, evergreen structure, and winter dormancy so the garden has something to say all year.

Spring Summer Fall Winter

From photo to planting plan

Your yard,
in three steps.

  1. 1

    Bring in your yard

    Choose a photo, orient north, and calibrate one known distance.

  2. 2

    Add what grows there

    Inventory existing plants, browse the catalog, or create a custom plant.

    Explore the future

    Review growth, overlap, seasons, and sun before you commit.

Good to know

A thoughtful tool,
without the baggage.

Is LeafLocus a subscription?

No. The plan is a seven-day full trial followed by a one-time lifetime purchase.

What happens to my gardens when the trial ends?

Nothing is deleted. Your gardens remain available to view, and purchasing lifetime access restores editing, analysis, and sync.

Do I need to create an account?

No LeafLocus account is required. Optional device-to-device sync uses your existing iCloud account.

Can I add a plant that is not in the catalog?

Yes. Add a custom plant with its own size, light, water, bloom, and seasonal details, then reuse it throughout your gardens.
