All Plants Placement by Light Zone Guide

Use this guide to find the best light zone for each plant on your Gardyn. Plants are grouped by light needs to help you quickly find where they grow best.

Your Gardyn has high, medium and low light zones that determine where plants grow best. High light is found in the center, medium light surrounds it, and low light is found in the outer and lower areas.

• Plants are grouped by high, medium, and low light zones

• Start with the recommended zone for best results

• If needed, place plants one light zone lower

Refer to the maps below to find high, medium, and low light zones on your Gardyn Home or Studio.

These plants grow best in the center of your Gardyn, where light intensity is strongest.
