Last updated August 21, 2026

These terms apply when you visit or use GardenGay. By using the site, you agree to them.

Garden information

GardenGay provides general educational and editorial information. Gardens vary by climate, soil, weather, plant health, local rules, and individual conditions. Our content is not a substitute for advice from a qualified local horticulturist, arborist, contractor, attorney, or other professional when one is needed.

Check plant identity, toxicity, invasiveness, local restrictions, mature size, and site conditions before planting. Use reasonable care around tools, chemicals, wildlife, utilities, structures, children, and pets.

Accuracy and availability

We work to make GardenGay useful and accurate, but information may contain errors, become outdated, or not apply to your location. The site and its content are provided as available. We may change, remove, suspend, or add content and features at any time.

Intellectual property

GardenGay branding, original writing, design, graphics, and site materials belong to GardenGay or their respective licensors and are protected by applicable law. You may read, link to, and share links to our public pages for personal and noncommercial purposes.

Do not republish substantial portions of our original work, remove attribution, scrape the site at a disruptive rate, sell our content, or use GardenGay branding in a way that suggests endorsement without written permission.

Acceptable use

Do not interfere with the site, attempt unauthorized access, submit malicious code, impersonate another person, use the contact system for spam, or use GardenGay in violation of law or the rights of others.

External links

Links to outside websites are provided for usefulness and context. GardenGay does not control those websites and is not responsible for their content, availability, products, or practices.

Limitation of responsibility

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, GardenGay and its operators will not be responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive loss arising from use of the site or reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms limits rights or responsibilities that cannot legally be limited.

Responsibility for claims

You agree to be responsible for claims, losses, or costs arising from your misuse of the site, violation of these terms, or infringement of another person’s rights, to the extent permitted by law.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as GardenGay changes. The revision date will appear at the top. Continued use after an update means the revised terms apply to your later use.
