GartianoGartiano

Gartiano is built for garden stores: plant nurseries, seed and bulb companies, rose specialists, pots and garden tools, outdoor living and home-and-garden shops. The idea: the store is a garden designer's plan seen from above. The home page is a drawn garden, plants are round plan symbols sized by how wide they really grow, and every product page is a growing sheet that tells shoppers how many plants their bed needs.

The signature is Plan My Bed. Shoppers draw their bed (rectangle, circle, L-shape or long border), type its size or drag the corner handle, pick its sun and soil, and add plants. The page works out how many of each plant fit at its planting distance, draws them in the bed with the tall ones at the back, warns when a plant does not suit the bed's sun or soil, and adds the whole bed to the cart in one click.

What you get

• Top-down garden plan home page: a drawn plan with a border, lawn, patio, veg plot, pond and trees. Each area of the plan opens the products that belong to it. Choose one of six drawn layouts (cottage garden, courtyard, family garden, veg garden, balcony, front garden) or upload your own illustrated plan, and link each area to a collection in the theme editor.
• The title block: like the corner of a real garden drawing, with your store name, drawing name, scale bar and north arrow. It holds Legend, Search, My Spot and the Barrow (cart). On phones it becomes a bottom strip. You choose whether it shrinks, hides or stays put while shoppers scroll.
• The Legend: a drawer of plan symbols (perennials, bulbs, roses, trees, seeds, pots, gifts) with how many of each are on the plan, plus links to Plan My Bed and the Garden calendar.
• Plan My Bed: the bed planner described above, on its own page. Shoppers can save up to six beds in their browser, see them on their account page, and share a bed as a link.
• Garden calendar: a page with all twelve months showing what to sow, plant, enjoy in flower and harvest, built from your products' month data. The home page has a "What to do in <month>" section with Sow now and Plant now, and a schedule table of plants in stock this week.
• Suits my spot: shoppers tell the store about their spot once (full sun, part shade or full shade; dry, average or wet soil). It is kept in their browser, and every plant that matches gets a small "Suits your spot" mark on collection pages, search and Plan My Bed. A Sun and Shade section on the home page asks the same question.
