For Shrub’s sake.

Planting software
with a bit of an attitude.

A planting plan starts before the final plant list. What The Shrub! is being developed to bring spatial design and plant selection together in one dedicated application.

The application is being developed as standalone SaaS. It is intended to support both plant choice and the spatial development of a planting plan, without depending on one specific CAD workflow.

One visual workflow.

Build the spatial planting design and keep plant choices connected to where they belong.

01

Shape the border

Define the planting area and divide it into adjoining plant objects. Each object becomes a clear, editable part of the planting design.

02

Choose plants visually

Browse plants using recognisable photography and assign a plant to each object. Plant choices remain connected to their position in the design.

03

Build a readable planting plan

Bring plant objects, botanical names and quantities together in a plan that can be understood by designers, contractors and clients.
