A Garden That Lives on Your Desktop Daily Botanica is a quiet plant-growing game made to share your screen, not take it over. Set down a pot, plant a mystery seed, and let a new companion grow beside your work, games, and everyday windows. Nothing withers when you step away. A plant reaches full bloom in about a day on its own, while gentle care helps it grow sooner. Water the soil, brush the leaves with your cursor, or uncover a special ritual. Each successful interaction adds a lasting care bonus for that growth, making the plant grow faster while you carry on with your day. Every Seed Is a Mystery Every plant begins as an unknown sprout. As it develops through three growth stages, its silhouette, rarity, native habitat, variation, and identity gradually come into focus. The original collection contains 137 species, ranging from delicate familiar greenery to strange botanical treasures. Each species has its own unusual preferences. Watch Botanica for clues and discover what your plant responds to: a gesture around its leaves, a moment of quiet company, or something brought over from your desktop. Special rituals can provide powerful care bonuses once per growth. Keep What You Grow When a plant reaches full bloom, harvest it into your Herbarium. Each specimen is its own individual, preserving its name, visual variation, care history, bond, and memories of the time you spent together. Keep your favorites safely in the Herbarium, display them around your desktop, or send them to the Conservatory for additional XP. Displayed companions also earn a small amount of passive XP over time. Your Discoveries journal permanently records every species you have raised, even after an individual plant leaves your collection. Follow the Garden Path Harvesting plants, discovering new species, displaying companions, and sending specimens to the Conservatory earns XP. Progress through 100 Garden Levels, each with its own title and permanent reward. Garden Levels unlock core pots, watering cans, additional growing spaces, and account-wide improvements such as shorter growth times, stronger care, faster interaction cooldowns, and increased XP rewards. Make the Garden Yours Arrange plants anywhere on screen and pair them with vessels from the Pot Atelier. Every growing space and displayed companion can be moved and resized independently. Growing spaces can be hidden without pausing their progress, while harvested plants can be displayed around your desktop without a fixed limit. When you need a clear workspace, lock the garden and click straight through to the files, games, and windows beneath it. Daily Botanica stays present without getting in your way. Grow at Your Own Pace There are no failed crops, no wilting, and no penalty for closing the game. Growth and interaction cooldowns continue while you are away. Mystery seeds are always available, and new growing spaces open as your Garden Level rises. A single pot can remain a small daily ritual—or become a garden spread across your entire desktop.
