Beta
Garden Designer
See what your yard could become — before you plant a thing. Trace your space over an aerial photo, and GoGarden designs a planted bed with native plants suited to your region, then shows you the plants, the cost, and a top-down render of the finished yard. Irrigation layout and a full install plan are on the way.

✔ Prefer just the plant list?
The Garden Designer gives you the full render. If you only want the planting list, the Lawn-Conversion Planner turns a lawn into a real low-water planting list — pick a look, enter your area, and get plant counts, spacing, cost, and coverage, with fire-smart plant flags built in.
Envision it, then build it
Every GoGarden calculator answers one question — how much gravel, where the sprinkler heads go, how the drain runs. The Garden Designer ties them together into the picture that actually gets a homeowner off the couch: here is what your yard could look like, and here is exactly what it takes to make it real.
That render is the whole idea. It's the difference between a spreadsheet of materials and a design you want to spend a Saturday building.
How it works
- Trace your yard over an aerial photo (or a screenshot from a maps app) and set the scale — the image stays in your browser.
- We propose a planted design — beds seeded with native, locally-common plants matched to your sun, with a live plant list, cost, and a top-down render of the finished yard.
What's coming
- Irrigation layout — drip and micro-spray zones sized to your water, using the same engine behind our sprinkler calculator.
- Supply list & install plan — DIY it with a parts list, or get matched with a local pro to build it.
- AI-assisted design — a generated render of your finished yard and smart plant suggestions for your exact conditions.
