Wondering what to give the aspiring gardener in your life this holiday season? Look no further than Plantum, a top-rated plant identification app. Plantum has earned 4.6/5 stars on the App Store on more than 20 million downloads and was named one of the best apps to care for indoor plants by Donna Moderna. That's because this powerful app harnesses artificial intelligence to identify more than 15,000 plant species, diagnose their conditions, and give you care advice tailored to your plants. It's a plant encyclopedia and plant doctor in one tool, teaching you how to care for new plants and how to nurse older ones back to their peak condition.

Now you can take a photo of any plant and get an immediate and highly accurate identification of the plant type and its features. Apps like PictureThis and Plantsnap can identify and help people care for thousands of plant species with artificial intelligence and machine learning technology. The apps train their deep learning models with millions of photos taken by plant lovers and botanists all over the world. To identify a plant, users snap a photo of the plant, and the app identifies it in seconds. Some of the apps not only give the genus and common name of the plant, but also information on its origin, maturity size, and any flowers or fruit associated with that plant.
