Why Use the Plant Care Reminder?

Never forget to water your plants again - a simple, private dashboard for all your houseplant care needs.

Set per-plant watering frequency from daily to rarely. Visual progress bars show how many days since last watering vs the interval. One-click "Mark Watered" resets the timer.

Overdue & Due-Soon Alerts

The dashboard highlights overdue plants in red and due-soon plants in amber. A dedicated alert banner lists all plants that need immediate attention - so you never forget to water again.

Click the "Add Plant" button above the plant list. A new plant card appears with editable fields for name, type, watering frequency, fertilizing schedule, sunlight needs, and notes. Expand the card to see all settings. Your plants are automatically saved to your browser.
The dashboard compares days since last watering to the configured watering interval. If the days since last watering equals or exceeds the interval, the plant shows as overdue (red).
