Fruit tree records that stay useful

A fruit tree tracker built for real seasons.

OrcharDex keeps each fruit tree’s identity, cultivar, location, photos, care, observations, and harvests together—so your orchard record becomes more valuable every year.

What should a fruit tree tracker record?

Start with the details that remain useful after the nursery tag fades: species, cultivar, planting date, growing space, notes, and photos. OrcharDex keeps those records connected to care events, reminders, phenology observations, and harvests rather than scattering them across a spreadsheet, camera roll, and calendar.

Keep cultivar and place connected

A Meyer lemon and a Valencia orange may need different records even when they share a yard. OrcharDex lets you organize edible plants by orchard, garden bed, patio, section, or property while preserving each plant’s cultivar and location. Search brings the right record back quickly when you are standing outside with your phone.

Remember care without building a second job

Create one-time or recurring reminders for work you choose to track. The task board separates overdue, upcoming, completed, and paused work. Completed tasks become part of the plant’s history, helping you answer practical questions such as when you last pruned, fertilized, planted, or checked a problem.

Photos and seasons in the same record

Attach photos to the plant they document, then log budding, flowering, fruit set, ripening, and harvest events. The result is a chronological record you can use to compare seasons. OrcharDex does not identify disease from a photo or replace local horticultural advice; it preserves your observations so you can make better-informed decisions.

Made for edible plants

OrcharDex is intentionally for fruit trees, vegetables, herbs, and other edible plants. It is not a general landscape inventory. That narrower focus keeps harvests, cultivars, growing spaces, reminders, and seasonal observations central to the experience.

The short answer

Keep the record close to the plant.

OrcharDex is a free, installable web app for fruit trees, vegetables, herbs, and other edible plants. It connects plant identity, photos, reminders, observations, harvests, and history across phones, tablets, and computers.
