Daily Botanica
Daily Botanica is a relaxing desktop idler about raising mysterious plants. Pet and water each seedling, discover what makes it flourish, and arrange a living collection around your screen - even while you work, study, or step away.
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 attention helps it grow sooner. Stop by for a few seconds to water the soil, brush the leaves with your cursor, or follow an unusual clue—then carry on with your day.
Every Seed Is a Mystery
Every plant begins as an unknown sprout. As it develops through three stages, its silhouette, rarity, and native habitat gradually come into focus. The base collection contains 137 species, ranging from delicate familiar greenery to strange botanical treasures.
Each habitat responds to different actions. Watch the journal for hints and discover what your plant enjoys: a gesture around its leaves, a moment of quiet company, or something brought over from your desktop.
Keep What You Grow
When a plant reaches full bloom, harvest it into your Herbarium. Each specimen is its own individual, with a 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 sell specimens for Dewdrops. Your Discoveries journal permanently records every species you have raised, even after an individual plant leaves your collection.
Make the Garden Yours
Arrange plants anywhere on screen and pair them with vessels from the Pot Atelier. Every pot can be moved and resized independently. Growing spaces can be hidden without pausing their progress, while harvested plants can be displayed without a fixed limit.
When you need a clear workspace, lock the garden and click straight through to the files and windows beneath it. Daily Botanica stays present without getting in your way.
Grow at Your Own Pace
There are no failed crops and no penalty for closing the game. Mystery seeds are always available, and new growing spaces open as your collection expands. A single pot can remain a small daily ritual—or become a garden spread across your entire desktop.
