HELP! Why Did my Start Just Die?

[loglady]

So as you can see in the picture below, my blue hydrangea start has wilted. I haven't reached the 12-start limit yet, though, and there isn't even a start next to it! What am I doing wrong so I can avoid this mistake in the future? Thank you!

Could be too much greenery in the area or a dead spot.

 

[loglady]

Thank you! Just read up on dead spots-- that's really strange!

It looks mostly to be too much greenery. I know i had that problem.

That path is fantastic. Did you make it (or will you provide the source?)

 

[loglady]

Thank you! I didn't, and I can't remember the source, unfortunately. I'll take a look for you, though, and if I find it I'll let you know!

Oh, okay. I didn't know that was a thing either, but that's probably it. Thank you!

Dead spots and the 12 limit are the bane of pathing's existence. You can still plant something there possibly because I came back another time and low and behold the dead spot now grew a bush in its place. Why? I don't know.

Maybe I ended up digging up a bush or killing a tree in that acre space and so it freed up a limit.

That's so weird! I'll see if i have any bushes or trees near there that I don't need and try that myself.Thank you for the advice!

Dead spots can be irritating. You have really nice paths though! It’s didficult to find a good path, but you have one.

Yeah, I've had a similar problem in Treehut, the game went 'NO MORE TREES' and decided to make me have an awkward open area in my thick over for own forest

I also really like that path. Would love to see the source if you can find it. I imagine it's from a fc2 blog, cause I haven't seen it in Pinterest or tumbrl...yet.
