Jardinier d'un Verger Canadien-AI plant identification guide

Example

User uploads three photos of a leafy shrub: close-up of leaf underside, whole-plant shot, and a flower close-up. The assistant returns three candidate identifications (common + scientific names), a confidence ranking, and a comparison table that highlights key differences (leaf arrangement, flower structure, fruiting time).

Scenario

A municipal volunteer needs to label shrubs along a walking path. Using the assistant, they confirm plant names, print clear labels with short care notes (e.g., 'Prunus serotina — black cherry; attracts pollinators; susceptible to tent caterpillars'). The assistant also suggests which photo angles to collect next to increase ID confidence.

Example

User supplies site details (hardiness zone, soil pH from test, sun exposure map, water access) and preferences (fruit types, low-maintenance, organic). The assistant returns a 3-year plan including soil amendments, planting schedule, irrigation plan, recommended cultivars, pruning calendar and fertilizer timing.

Scenario

A first-time orchardist with a small backyard wants low-chill apple, pear and raspberry varieties. The assistant suggests cultivar combinations that stagger harvest, rootstocks that fit space constraints, a year-by-year establishment plan, and a seasonal checklist (bud break: frost protection notes; post-harvest: sanitation and trapping suggestions).

Example

From a set of symptom descriptions (brown leaf spots, honeydew residue, stunted new growth) and photos, the assistant offers three possible diagnoses (e.g., aphid infestation, sooty mold secondary to sap feeding, early blight) with the reasoning chain and a ranked treatment plan (cultural controls, biological options, safe chemical choices if necessary).

Scenario

A gardener reports sudden defoliation on roses. The assistant lists plausible causes (black spot, rose chafer, abiotic stress), recommends rapid on-site checks (underside of leaves for eggs, canes for lesions), and provides stepwise interventions: immediate sanitation, targeted biological controls, spray timing windows and monitoring protocol for follow-up.

Example

User indicates preference for ergonomic tools and a modest budget. The assistant suggests up to five hand pruners, long-handled loppers, a compact compost tumbler and a soil test kit, describing features (cut capacity, warranty), pros/cons, and how each fits the user's needs.

Scenario

An elder gardener seeks lighter-weight tools due to reduced grip strength. The assistant recommends specific models with anvil vs. bypass explanations, glove suggestions, and a simple maintenance routine to lengthen tool life (cleaning, sharpening intervals).

Example

A novice requests how to graft an apple tree. The assistant returns a beginner-friendly step-by-step grafting guide for whip-and-tongue and cleft grafts, a materials checklist, timing recommendations by region, and troubleshooting tips for failure modes.

Scenario

A school garden coordinator plans a grafting workshop. The assistant generates a lesson plan, a materials procurement list, safety notes for tool use, and a one-page handout for students.

Example

A prospective client asks about available fruit shrub varieties and bulk order terms. The assistant provides product summaries, commonly asked FAQs, and guidance on matching customer needs to available cultivars while reflecting the nursery’s policies and values.

Scenario

A small orchard retail outlet wants to add a branded care-sheet for customers buying bare-root plants. The assistant drafts concise, brand-aligned care-sheets, packaging label text and post-sale follow-up email templates focused on establishment success.
