About Spriggo

A plant encyclopedia designed to answer the real questions plant owners ask.

The mission

Spriggo was born from a simple observation: when you have a problem with an indoor plant (yellow leaves, spots, animal that ate a piece), classic gardening sites rarely respond with the expected precision. Either the information is too generic, or it's buried in long generic articles, or it's outright wrong.

Our goal: cover every species with a clear ID sheet (light, watering, toxicity), and every symptom with a structured diagnosis (likely cause, verification, solution). No filler. No vagueness.

The companion: the Spriggo app

The site is published as part of the promotion of the mobile application Spriggo. Plant Health, available for free on Google Play.

The app identifies a plant from a photo, detects main problems (spots, yellowing, pests), and provides a health score out of 100. Site and app complement each other: the site provides background information, the app diagnoses in real time.

Editorial method

Each species sheet and diagnostic article is written from multiple recognized sources: classic horticultural references, veterinary databases (ASPCA, Pet Poison Helpline), feedback from gardeners and professional nurseries, field observations.

Animal toxicity is systematically verified against the ASPCA and other veterinary poison control databases. In case of suspected poisoning, contact a veterinarian or animal poison control center immediately.

Photographs

The photographs illustrating the articles come exclusively from Wikimedia Commons, under free licenses. Photo credits are indicated on each page (under each image). The complete credits list is in the /photos/CREDITS.md file of the source repository.
