Plant Cad Drawings

Stampy · February 23, 2017

Does anyone know a source for drawings of tomato (and other) plants (elevation and plan view) for a cad package (like AutoCad or similar)

I've looked around online, but haven't had much luck.

Thanks.

What do you mean?
Something to plan out a garden on the computer?

I guess that he is looking for an architectural type of drawing software to show shrubs/trees/flowers ... in the garden layout.

Im laying out my garden and greenhouse in AutoCad and want something better than circles and rectangles for the plants. I am looking for dxf or dwg blocks to add to my layout. Even good jpeg files could work.

I have an old home design program that has landscape stuff on it you might look for something like that instead of auto cad.
I can say it is smarter than me the user.

Grabcad has a few, not much.

Just go to Zukeeni.com, you can layout a full garden with representative plants of all types with recommended spacings (in top view only). It's free and they have a full plant database including square foot gardening patterns. It works just fine.
Edited: An added benefit, you can click on a plant in your garden layout and it takes you to the database for information on it.
