Say hello to leafport.com – the ultimate garden app

There he is again, you say to your­self. It’s a bug that you’ve seen in your veg­etable gar­den before. These tiny black bugs – dozens of them, in fact – are gath­er­ing on your tomato leaves, with cir­cum­stan­tial evi­dence that they’ve just had a snack.

You make a men­tal note of what they look like. You don’t want to head inside to check – not now. You just got out here and your hands are get­ting dirty.

You do have your smart­phone with you, though. You snap a pic­ture and promise your­self that you’ll look it up later. You could look it up right now, but don’t want to bother search­ing around in Google. An app exclu­sively for iden­ti­fy­ing gar­den bugs would be pretty handy right now. After all, to find a con­trol for a gar­den prob­lem, you must first iden­tify the pest.

Leafport.com is designed from the ground up to help you. It’s a gath­er­ing place just for the best gar­den apps. No more need to sort through non-related games or other distractions.

Right now we have a grow­ing col­lec­tion from a vari­ety of cat­e­gories – weeds, tools, weather, and more. Just want the free gar­den apps? Click on “Free” in the menu. Or use the search box to dig down into exactly what you need. No smart­phone? We’ve got you cov­ered. Sim­ply search under the “Web apps” device and these apps will run in any browser.

We’ll be adding many more apps in the months to come, along with in-depth, real-world, get-your-hands-dirty gar­den app reviews. If you have a favorite app you use that you’d like to see in our data­base, or if you’re a devel­oper, use our Con­tact form to get in touch with us.

Happy Gar­den­ing!
