Hello, everybody! I'm finally getting close to have my definition of a perfect town, but there are some spaces in my town that are empty but that aren't big enough or have a good location for a pwp. I have toooons of flowers, mostly hybrids ( pink/orange/purple/black/blue/golden roses, orange pansies, pink/orange/black tulips, pink/orange/black lilies, orange cosmos, blue violets, and pink/white/red carnations).

I'd like to know if you guys have ideas on how I can combine different flowers to create beautiful patterns ( tanking into account the color and flower shapes - I'd never put an orange rose together with a purple one for example). Here's an example of one pattern I enjoy a lot: ( x = pink tulips o = pink lilies )

------o o
-----oxxo
-----oxxo
------o o
-----xxxx
-----xoox
-----xoox
-----xxxx
I hope you guys can visualize it xd I'm looking for "classy" patterns. I've visited countless dream towns and the flower arrangements always make me cringe :(

Thanks!

I always do the same kind of flower together like this: xoxoxo I mean the same kind of flower ie tulips but different colors (like x being red and o's being pink) But I sometimes make say the x's bushes or a pattern instead of another flower. :)

Good idea! There's a shortage of bushes in my town though, I still need around 15+ to finish this garden I'm building xd. I will do something like what you said when I can though :)
 
One part of my town, I have purple violets, pansies, and tulips, but I had the most violets since they grow regularly, so I did this

and so on. I like how that turned out so much that I'm wanting to do that with my other flowers as well.
At another place, I did kind of your example but a little different with blue pansies and roses. I left the dashes empty at first, but I'm filling them with lucky clovers. blue violets or white carnations or something could also go there.

--/pp/ pp/ and so on (or not, i think it would look cool with just a 4x4 space, too)
