Photo timeline
Chronological grid for every tree. Set a cover photo and watch seasons of growth add up.
Your bonsai,
documented over years
A care journal built for hobbyist growers — log water, feed, prune, and repot, then see real progress in a photo timeline.
Free for up to 5 trees · iPhone · iCloud sync
Features
Everything a grower needs,
nothing you don’t
Deliberately simple logging. The magic is in the photos — years of training, side by side.
Year compare
Put your oldest and newest photos next to each other — the proof that patience pays off.
Smart reminders
Watering and feeding schedules by species, season, and hemisphere — at a time you choose.
35+ species
Juniper, maple, elm, pine, and more — or “Other” with your own custom intervals.
Quick care log
Log water, fertilize, prune, and repot in seconds. Edit type, date, and notes anytime.
iCloud sync
Your collection stays in sync across iPhones when you’re signed into iCloud. No extra account.
The differentiator
Built for the long game
Most apps stop at a checklist. Bonsai Pal is built around visual progress — the kind of transformation r/bonsai lives for.
- Monthly care history per tree
- Saved fertilizer products for faster logging
- Species care tips with a clear disclaimer
- “Needs water” on your collection when notifications are off
