Customer Reviews

Severely disappointing
I was so excited when I realised that DS had finally added what appeared to be a serious gardening guide. I received this as an anniversary present and waited with anticipation upon it's arrival. Within half an hour of using the the programme found that it was not what I was expecting at all.

The plant list is limited to 400 and a lot of the more common plants are not even in the list, to make matters worse you cannot add your own plant selection to the list as there is no wifi capability.

This would be a good guide to anyone who has a totally bare garden and wants to start from scratch, as long as you don't purchase over 48 plants, because that's all you can select for your gardens/house inclusive.

If I had known what this was like before it was purchased for me, I would I have said not to bother.
