Every photo lands on a dated growth line. Put the same plant side by side months apart and the change you'd never notice day to day finally shows.
Fern Wall Now free
Lay your boards out on an infinite canvas the way they actually hang, with each plant's care status at a glance.
Care log
Water, feed, prune, remount, pests and algae — plus your own care types. Log one plant or a whole shelf at once.
Lineage
Link every pup to the plant it came from and watch the family tree grow — then tap the board's NFC tag to open the right plant.
Apple Watch New
See which plants need water or feeding today right on your wrist and log it with a tap — no phone needed.

Loved by growers
The perfect archive for my collection
“The long-image export in the Growth Timeline turns every Ridley from pup to trophy size into one beautiful vertical image. And my data stays on my device — total peace of mind.”
The lineage tracking is outstanding
“I raise separated pups, so I wanted to organize parent and offspring. Fern records which mother produced which pup, the division date, and each generation's growth — a complete family tree.”
Two new fronds since I downloaded it
“It helped me dial in the perfect humidity and lighting for my staghorn. My fern has pushed out two massive new fronds since I started using it.”
