The short answer
myGarden is GARDENA's free online planner where you draw your plot with grass, beds, paving, and objects in a hand-drawn style, then save and share it by link. Its standout is a sprinkler-system planner that auto-places GARDENA sprinklers and piping and spits out a shopping list. The drawing is free and open; the irrigation list naturally points you to GARDENA products.

Alternatives to GARDENA myGarden Planner
VegPlotter
Free, with limitsThe free tier is permanent and genuinely usable: unlimited garden layouts of any size plus up to 20 plantings per planning year with rotation warnings and task lists; only unlimited plantings, custom plants, the photo journal, and sharing require Essentials ($24.99/yr) or Advanced ($39.99/yr).
iScape
Free, with limitsThe free tier limits you to about 2 designs with roughly 20 items and applies watermarks, so it's a demo to test AR on your phone, not real design work; the full library and proposal tools require Pro at $29.99/mo or $299.99/yr.
DreamzAR
Free, with limitsYou get a small undisclosed batch of free starting credits, enough for a few AI generations before hitting the paywall; unlimited designs and all features need a subscription at $19.99/mo or $199/yr, and that subscription is locked to the single platform (iOS, Android, or web) you bought it on.
