A landscaping planner usually means drawing your plot from above. This one starts with a photo of your garden, so you don't need to know the name of a single plant.
Add a photo, and choose what to design
One photo from your phone is all it takes. Redesign the planting around the paths and paving you have, or the whole space with a new layout and paths.
Choose the look
Pick one of 15 styles and a colour scheme, then ask for anything you want, like "add a wildlife pond". Or tap Get this garden on any garden on this page.

Garden landscape design, made simple
What it designs, how it picks the plants, and how it compares with a landscape designer or landscape design software.
Landscape design that starts with your own garden
See your garden transformed the easy way. Upload a photo, choose a style, and get a photorealistic landscape design of your own space in about a minute: borders graded from back to front, colour through the seasons, and your fences and mature trees kept exactly where they are. Because it designs into your real garden, the result belongs there. It is the quickest way to picture your landscape looking its best before you lift a spade. It is a garden design tool in your browser: you mark out your beds and pop in their measurements, and it plans the planting to fit.
Beautiful planting, chosen properly
This focuses on the part of landscape design most people find hardest: the landscape planting. Every plant is a real garden plant, chosen for your light, soil and climate by a professional gardener's rules and sized to your beds, so the landscape you see is one you can genuinely grow. Keep your paths, patios, walls and established trees, and the planting is designed around them, so the whole picture hangs together. Or redesign the whole space, paths and paving included.
Landscape design ideas, drawn into your garden
Landscape design ideas usually come as other people's gardens: garden landscaping ideas to save and hope to copy. Here they are drawn into a photo of your own garden, so you see how a cottage border, a gravel garden or a simple garden landscape design would look in the space you actually have, with your own fences and trees. Try one style, then another on the same photo.
A landscape designer, or software?
A landscape designer can visit, measure and oversee the build, and the average UK garden design costs about £1,950. Landscape design software costs less, but you draw everything yourself. This sits between the two: it designs from a photo for you, and your first 3 designs are free.

Landscape design questions
Is there a free program for landscape design?
Yes. This one gives you free landscape design for your own garden: your first 3 designs are free, with no card. Add one photo, pick a style, and see it redesigned in about a minute. It runs in your browser, so there is nothing to download.
How does the AI garden design work?
Upload a photo of your garden or a single border, and tell us what you'd like: refresh your borders, keeping your garden's shape, or redesign the whole space with new layout, paths and planting. Pick a style, and we generate a photorealistic redesign of your actual garden. When you love one, unlock its planting plan: every plant, how big each grows, and where each goes.
Are the plants real? Can I actually buy and plant them?
Yes. Every design can become a planting plan of real plants you can buy, chosen for where you live, with each plant's mature height and spread, where it goes and a month-by-month flowering guide. The plans are built on real horticultural data and shaped by a professional gardener, not generic AI guesses, so the garden in the picture is a garden you can genuinely plant.
Do I need a special photo or camera?
No, a normal phone photo is perfect. Photograph your whole garden if it's small and simple, or one border at a time for larger or more complex gardens, where each bed has its own light and soil.
Is it really free, and what does it cost after?
Yes, your first 3 garden designs are free, straight away. Free designs carry a small watermark. Pro is £29 and Max £49, each one payment that covers your whole project, and every design you make with either comes with every plant named, plus a clean, higher quality image that is yours to keep. Pro makes two designs at once, Max four.
Does it design hard landscaping, like paving and paths?
On a whole garden design, yes: it can redesign the layout, paths and paving, and Pro and Max name the materials in the picture, from the gravel to the fence. Or keep your paving, decking and walls as they are, and it designs the planting around them.
What is the difference between this and landscape design software?
Traditional design software asks you to draw the layout yourself. This designs it for you from a photo, with no drawing and nothing to install, and shows you a photorealistic result of your own garden.
Where do I buy the plants?
Wherever suits you. The planting plan names real, widely available garden plants, so you can take it to any good garden centre or order them online, all at once or a bit at a time.
How much does landscape design cost?
A professional garden design in the UK averages about £1,950 and takes weeks to months. Here your first 3 designs are free; after that, Pro is £29 and Max £49, each one payment.
