Area divided by one plant's footprint overestimates how many fit. FlowerBedPlan calculates the count for a staggered triangular planting pattern, the way real beds are actually planted.
Filter by sunlight — full sun, part shade, or shade. Each flower lists its spacing (15-60cm) and bloom season, and you can mix several flowers and adjust their ratio.
View your chosen flowers arranged in a staggered pattern over a plan view that follows your bed's actual shape, so you know what it will look like before spending anything.
A season slider shows how the bloom changes over the year, so you can plan for colour across spring, summer, and fall.
Save the bloom view as a photo to compare options or show family before you shop.
Figuring out how many plants fit in a flower bed isn't just area divided by the space one plant needs. Real beds are filled with a staggered (triangular) layout, so simple division leads to buying too many plants or running short and making a second trip.
FlowerBedPlan measures your bed and lets you pick the flowers you want, then estimates the number of plants based on a staggered layout. You can preview how the bloom will look on a plan view that follows your bed's actual shape, before you buy anything.
