When, how, and why to use QR Codes?

 

1. During exhibitions

When showcasing your bonsai trees at an event, you can attach a printed QR Code to each tree. Visitors simply scan it to view a full profile including species, age, cultivation techniques used, care history, and photo galleries showing its development. This effectively replaces long printed descriptions.

Why it’s useful: You provide visitors with an immersive, interactive experience. Each tree is individually highlighted, and the need for printed materials is greatly reduced.

 

2. As a professional

Sellers, growers, or experts can use QR Codes to give clients or partners quick and accurate access to relevant data: tree origin, recommended care, substrates used, and more. The QR Code becomes a tool for transparency and trust.

Why it’s useful: It demonstrates your professionalism, simplifies communication, and allows the other party to make well-informed decisions.

 

3. To offer a personalized gift

If you're giving a bonsai as a gift, you can create a custom QR Code to accompany it. The recipient will be able to access all data related to their new tree: its origin, care instructions, and its progress up to now.

Why it’s useful: It adds a personal and educational dimension to your gift. The recipient can better understand the tree’s history and how to care for it properly.

 

4. Online sales

For online stores or shipped orders, a QR Code can be placed on the product sheet or included in the package. Buyers can access the bonsai’s full history or details even before purchase.

Why it’s useful: It builds buyer confidence, increases transparency, and adds perceived value to your online offer.

 

5. Remote care and follow-up

When collaborating remotely with fellow enthusiasts, instructors, or consultants, the QR Code allows them full access to your tree profiles. This makes discussions, advice, and diagnosis easier, with no confusion or lost information.

Why it’s useful: It ensures accurate, personalized, and ongoing follow-up of your bonsai, even from afar, without needing to explain everything manually.

 

6. Competitions and evaluations

At competitions or judging events, organizers, judges, or visitors can scan QR Codes to get a full and reliable overview of each bonsai. Techniques used, development, and care records are accessible instantly.

Why it’s useful: It enriches the evaluation process by providing access to details often missed during quick inspections.

 

7. Staying connected with the previous owner

If you inherit a bonsai from a friend or temporarily entrust one to someone else, the QR Code lets the former owner continue tracking its evolution. They can view updates like repotting or treatments, as if they were still watching over their green companion.

Why it’s useful: It creates an emotional and informative bridge between people, benefiting the bonsai itself.

 

8. Workshops and training

During workshops, internships, or theoretical courses, QR Codes allow participants to directly access the profiles of studied trees. They serve as a complementary digital support and enrich the learning experience.

Why it’s useful: Learners can review the information at their own pace, dive deeper into topics, and better understand the context of demonstrations or activities.

 


In summary, QR Codes in Appy Bonsai are not just gadgets. They are a real tool for management, communication, and enhancement. With them, you simplify data access, improve interactions with other enthusiasts, and modernize the presentation of your collection.
