Read your bloom calendar
Colour gaps are easy to miss. The bloom calendar (Seasonry+) lays out every plant's flowering months side by side, so you can see at a glance when your garden peaks and where it goes quiet.
1. Open the calendar
In View mode, open the Overview panel from the right rail. At the top of it, the whole-garden summary carries a Bloom calendar button. Click it to open the full bloom calendar: twelve months, with one row per species.
2. Read the rows
Each row is a species. Its garden label carries the name, how many you planted and when it flowers, and beside it runs its vine: green while the plant is in leaf, brown while it stands bare, and missing while it rests underground. In its flowering months its own flower opens on the vine. Switch on Only flowers to keep just the flowers, and overlaps and gaps stand out even more. Months when nothing flowers are named at the foot of the calendar, with a button that searches the catalogue for plants that flower then.
3. Spot the current month
A dashed clay line runs down the current month through every row, so you can instantly read what's flowering now and what's just about to start.
4. Per plot or the whole garden
Every bloom calendar lives in the Overview panel, which needs Seasonry+. From there you can read the whole garden with every area stacked together, or open a single bed's row for that bed's own calendar, so you can balance colour across the whole plot and inside one border. On the Example Garden the panel is open on every plan, so you can try it before you subscribe.
