Over the past few months, we've been busy building new features, forming new partnerships, and taking Plantsoon to stages we're proud of. Here's everything that's been happening. Partnership Education Plantsoon + GoodPlanet Belgium at the Sett school fair On February 25 and 26, Plantsoon and GoodPlanet Belgium joined forces at the Sett Vlaanderen fair in Mechelen — and the response was fantastic. We believe nature and education are stronger together. With Plantsoon, students discover the natural world interactively: inventorying plants, tracking growth, and exploring their green surroundings. GoodPlanet brings this straight into the classroom, with ready-to-use projects and lesson packages centered on biodiversity and future-oriented learning. Together, we showed that technology, education, and nature can go hand in hand — engaging and inspiring students to become active participants in a greener future. New feature Science Introducing the flora creation wizard — scientific names, simplified Anyone working with plants knows the challenge: botanical nomenclature is a world of its own. And it gets more complex when different reference databases — Kew's Plants of the World Online, IPNI, GBIF, Tropicos — don't always agree. Synonyms, disputed classifications, regional differences: the same plant can carry different accepted names depending on where you look. Our new Scientific Name Wizard is built around World Flora Online as the core reference — a globally recognized standard. But we know that's not always enough. That's why the wizard also lets you record a custom scientific name when your work demands it. Whether you're following a different authority, working with a provisional name, or need to stay true to the nomenclature used in your field — you can always record it correctly and keep it fully traceable. Step-by-step guidance  ·  Smart autocomplete  ·  Full flexibility for every naming workflow Success story Accreditation Sint-Pietersinstituut earns ArbNet accreditation — with Plantsoon We're proud to share that Sint-Pietersinstituut has received official ArbNet accreditation — and Plantsoon played a key role in making it happen. ArbNet is the only global accreditation program for arboreta, recognizing institutions that meet rigorous standards for tree documentation, collections management, and public engagement. By implementing Plantsoon to systematically inventory and document their tree collection, Sint-Pietersinstituut was able to meet those standards and achieve accreditation. This is exactly the kind of outcome we build Plantsoon for — helping institutions give their green collections the professional recognition they deserve.

Expect several of these improvements to land this spring — we'll keep you posted as each one ships. In progress Streamlined label management  ·  Direct ordering from the dashboard  ·  Spring 2026 delivery Events Visitor engagement on a budget — our APGA Small Gardens presentation In February, we had the pleasure of presenting at the APGA Small Gardens Virtual Symposium alongside Kimberly Weeks of the Andrew Jackson Hermitage. Our session — "Visitor Engagement on a Budget: Digital Storytelling at Andrew Jackson's Hermitage" — explored how to achieve meaningful visitor engagement at a fraction of the typical budget, and with minimal technical expertise. The Hermitage's experience with Plantsoon demonstrated that digital plant storytelling doesn't require a large team or significant resources. It just requires the right tools. We're proud to support institutions like the Hermitage in connecting visitors with the living history around them. Your ideas matter — share them with us We're always looking to improve Plantsoon — both the platform and our physical plant labels. If you have suggestions, ideas, or feedback on anything we could do better, we'd love to hear from you. Write to us at hello@plantsoon.com — your input directly shapes what we build next.
