About Garden Buds
Plants that grow better together.
Garden Buds is an honest companion planting guide. Look up any vegetable, herb, or flower to see its best companions and the plants to keep away, and learn why. Every pairing is rated by how strong the evidence is.
Find friends and foes
85 common garden plants, each with good companions and bad neighbors, explained in plain English. Tap any pairing to see how it works and where the advice comes from.
Check any combination
Pick the plants you want to grow and get an instant verdict, a compatibility grid, and suggestions for what to add, such as an easy herb or flower that helps the whole group.
Plan your beds
Lay out beds, raised beds, and containers on a simple square-foot grid. Garden Buds flags bad neighbors as you plant, so you can fix a layout before anything goes in the ground.
Honest about the evidence
Companion planting advice is full of folklore. Garden Buds marks every pairing as Well supported, Some evidence, or Traditional, and cites the published research behind it. Turn off traditional pairings if you only want what has been tested.
Private and offline
No account, no ads, no tracking. Your gardens stay on your phone, and everything works without a signal, out in the garden.
Also included
- Metric or imperial units
- Light and dark paper themes
- Export and import your garden data as a file
- Watercolor-style illustrations of every plant
