Overview

HortusFox is a free, open source self hosted plant and garden management system built on PHP. It organises plants by location and gives you a plant inventory, watering and care task scheduling, a photo gallery, a journal and history view, a calendar, inventory tracking and a collaborative group chat, all behind an admin dashboard and a REST API.

It suits home growers, plant enthusiasts and small teams or community gardens that want a private, self hosted way to track and care for a growing collection of plants.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg delivers HortusFox hardened, fully patched and preconfigured so the web interface is working immediately, served over HTTPS with a certificate generated uniquely for your instance. A unique admin password, database password and cronjob token are all generated on first boot with no default login, and every deployment is paired with a step by step deployment guide and backed by 24/7 support.
