In this guide I want to share with everyone what I think you can do with the foliage available in the game, as well as some public work projects, to really make your town represent the season it is in the game.
Spring and Summer
These two seasons are about flowers blooming and things being green and lush. These are probably the easiest seasons to represent in your town, as it's pretty hard to make it look bad.
For flowers, you will wanna stick with pink, red, yellow, and orange as the primary colors. These are just bright and cheerful colors that are vibrant to look at. However, you can also use the rest of the colors, blue, black, white, purple, and gold in moderation without really taking away from the spring and summer feel of your town.
Dandelions and clovers are also very helpful to bring out the feeling of these seasons.
You can use some mushrooms as well, but not too many.
Cedar trees have a wintery feel to them, so try not to have too many of them during these seasons. Try to stick with mainly fruit and regular trees.
For bushes, lots of azaleas in spring, and lots of hydrangeas and hibiscus for summer look great with their flowers. You can use some of the rest of the bushes because they will just be plain bushes without flowers.
Autumn
Autumn is the time of year where things start to die and everything turns red and orange. You can use some of the things from summer here, but there are also some differences.
For flowers, you will want to stick with orange, purple, red, black, and yellow colors, with a little gold here and there if you want.
You can use some dandelions as well, but not too many.
Clovers are still fine to use in fall, so use as many as you like. Same with mushrooms, these look great spread around under the trees.
For trees, you can start adding a bunch of cedar to your town. Fruit and regular trees still look good too, but try to have some leafless perfect fruit trees. They look great during autumn.
For bushes, use lots of sweet olives and holly's. These are great for this season because they just have the right color to them when they are in bloom. Use some of the rest of the bushes like in spring and summer, mainly just for the color and adding foliage.
Winter
Winter is supposed to look calm and cold, so you will really need to change up the plants for this season.
Stick with blue, white, black, and purple flowers for winter. They give an icy and cold feel. Try to stay away from the other bright colors flowers. You can also use Jacobs Ladders here. They look great in the snow.
Use lots of pine trees, and lots of leafless trees to really get the feeling of winter. The other trees still work, but they shouldn't have their leaves haha.
You can use any bushes during winter, mainly because nothing is blooming during these months and everything is covered in snow anyways.
Not only can you use the foliage available in the game to make the seasons look great, but I think there are some PWP's that really match certain seasons. You can use any of these in any seasons and do whatever you want with the rest of the PWP's, but this is what I think of them.
In spring and summer use the camping cot, outdoor chair, hammock, log bench, picnic basket, flower clock, flower arch, fire pit, hot spring, the topiaries, the torch, wisteria trellis, and/or the totem pole.
In winter use the metal bench, illuminated clock, street lamp, illuminated arch, illuminated heart, and the illuminated tree.
For autumn the scarecrow is great.
These really don't matter as much as the foliage, so you don't need to really do anything about he PWP's in your town. Most of them always look fine whenever.
There's also a lot you can do with some of the major holidays in the game such as Christmas, Halloween, and Easter, so also use sign posts, cutout boards, and paths/patterns to really decorate your town along with these tips.
So there yah go. This is what I think looks best in each season, so if you disagree, that's fine. If you have any suggestions on changes I could/should make, let me know
