Does anyone have any advice on how i can improve it? How did you guys decorate around your fountain/outside your townhall?
 
Oh, and I would add another flower next to the benches., so you fill in that gap. Other than that, it looks great. Your path is really lovely and well placed.

Thats a good idea, i've been leaving it until i get a few more orange roses but the gap is bugging me! Oh thank you so much, i feel much better about it now!

It looks completely fine. I agree with TheGreatBrain. If you don't like the trees when they're completely grown, you can try bushes. I would also add more flowers because the area looks a little bare.
 
may i ask what you're planning to do with the bare strip of land next to the planted saplings? since it's two squares of space, i probably would've filled both spaces with trees but alternate them. and in the spaces left blank, i'd put in some bushes and flowers.

o = blank space, x = trees

something like that. if you had something else in mind, then ignore me! but i agree that it'll look better once the greenery grows it :)

Thank you! I definitely agree about the flowers, i think that would make me like it a little more. And thank you for the advice about using bushes :D

I love your path. I like it, just a few more flowers and you are golden. :)

Thank you! It was definitely a lucky find, i wish i could credit the designer but the website i found it on was Japanese so i have no idea how to find it again :( I'll get planting flowers asap :D

I was thinking the exact same thing. :)

Melbabear- I might have a few orange roses on my beach that you can have. I'll turn on my game and check.

Looks like I have three. You're more than welcome to have them. :)

Oh no I'm sorry I missed you :( just drop me a vm when you're back! Thank you again :D
 
I think it looks fine :) just add more trees and such.
in between the paths you can even set up a lamppost or something! that'll add some oomf
 
flowers adjacent to it, then a row of clovers/stepping stones, then your actual path, then bushes and trees boi
 
I'd suggest to build a bench right in front of the fountain. Not at the left. I'd take the wood bench or the metal bench. The log bench or the picnic blanket would also be very cute. Maybe the (flower) arch or the Wisteria Trellis.
