We weren't all born with green thumbs. For those of us that need a little help, technology can be our saving grace when it comes to gardening.
Whether you've never picked up a shovel or have a blooming back yard, we've rounded up a collection of great apps and gadgets to help you grow a garden. Some apps serve as a digital catalog for your favorite flowers, while others recommend seeds and equipment for beginners.
For those who prefer virtual greenery, you can tend to your plants on screen, or have tech do all the work for you with smart flower pots like Click & Grow or Wi-Fi sensors that monitor your soil stats.
Check out our gallery of garden gadgets and let us know in the comments if you use other apps or devices.
