Florida-Friendly yard planning

Plan yards that pass HOA review

Browse Florida-Friendly plants, lay out your beds, and generate structured landscaping proposals before you submit to your board.

Yard planner

Map beds on your lot, place plants where they'll actually grow, and see the layout before you buy a single pot.

AI assistant & HOA proposals

Ask plant questions and get cited answers from trusted sources, then export a planting proposal PDF with the species, quantities, and sizing details boards typically require.

What it is

Botanicus is a yard-planning app for Florida homeowners and HOA communities. It combines UF/IFAS Florida-Friendly plant data with a visual bed planner and an AI assistant that shows its sources. When you're ready to request a landscaping change, Botanicus assembles the details architectural review usually asks for—without replacing your board's approval.
