slaxor505 / lovelace-flower-card

Release

This fork of the flower-card depends on this patch to the internal Plant component: https://github.com/Olen/homeassistant-plant

Instead of reading the max/min-values from the huge data-file, it gets the values from the plant entity.

Disclaimer

I looked into several forks of the original card https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-flower-card. Some forks were very interesting and I edited several of those source codes changes into my own new fork. Credits to those original authors.
