About this app

The new PlantFile Pro App is an easy-to-use searchable plant database with over 3800 species and over 6000 cultivars and varieties of commonly used world wide ornamental and native plants, together with over 14,000 photographs. It also includes common pests & diseases and their control methods.

The PlantFile Pro is a functional, real-time resource for anyone with an interest in plants – from gardening enthusiasts to professional horticulturalists and landscape designers. It is also ideal for students as it is reliably documented with all botanical features.

Was introduced to the computer version of this app which was great when I was a student then also used it allot for working in Horticulture and Land Management The phone app however is extremely buggy and the search feature for common names is very average I also find it is missing a few plants here and there but majority of them are there Shame to see it's had no updates to fix these issues in a long time, would be an amazing app for work, study and DIY gardeners otherwise

Now that I have upgraded my phone I have installed the app and have found it extremely useful when looking up information. It is very comparable to the desktop version of the software. Would like to see an update as I am sure things have changed.

I've been using this data base at TAFE for 3 years and love it. I have only just discovered the app and it's just as good. So helpful and informative. It took a while to download all the plants, but then are a lot of plants and info, so it was worth it.
