Field notes
The address-based workflow asks users to mark plot corners on a satellite view, then trace the house and neighbouring trees before calculating where sunlight lands. Plant entries are described with site-relevant details such as moisture, hardiness, mature size, flowering months, care tasks, and nursery price. The page says design is free and payment comes when users want the garden to proceed, but gives no price in the supplied evidence.
