The Gift of Life for Mother's Day: Parrot Flower Power Plant Sensor (Green) Bundle with Poly Grip Hand Trowel With Flower Power, anyone can have a green thumb. Parrot Flower Power is a sensor that when planted close to a plant in a pot or in open ground provides real-time measurements of the factors essential for healthy growth and then sends updates to the free app on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. The data retrieved by the Parrot Flower Power is sent to your Smartphone or Tablet using Bluetooth low energy technology, allowing it to communicate with Bluetooth Smart Ready devices. Bluetooth Low Energy is a wireless technological standard which consumes very little energy. If you are not within Bluetooth range, it keeps the data in its memory until you are back within range (data kept for up to 80 days). Alerts are sent to your Smartphone each time one of your plants needs attention. A Parrot Flower Power can monitor several plants in the same pot, in a planter or on a small plot of land if the conditions of watering, soil drainage, and exposure to the sun and wind are uniform. Download the free Parrot Flower Power App on your Smartphone/Tablet. The application will then connect your Flower Power to the Parrot Cloud (via 3G/4G or Wi-Fi), where the data is analyzed.
