Landscaping is hard.

[MayorEmily]

Hello! So I'm working on town development and seem to have come to a standstill. I have most of my paths down, and some vague ideas of where I want PWPs to be. However, I am having lots of trouble with landscaping. You know, trees, bushes, flowers, all that stuff. Now, I have materials. I'm just unsure of how to get started, really. I'm not looking for somebody to do it for me, but some advice (or a guide link maybe?) would be really helpful. ʕノ?ᴥ?ʔノ

Depending on what paths you're using, I usually recommend this.

Choose a Medium sized space for a perfect fruit orchard.
Line paths with flowers.
Bushes can be a good replacement for hybrids, but remember, you cannot walk through them. Don't put them in a place where it would be a hassle to walk around them.
I like giving each villager their own 'garden'. (Ex. Ribbot has black hybrids, Celia has mainly white flowers with other mixed colours.)

Thanks! I'm using a two tile brick path in about half of my town, a three tile brick path a tiny bit, and a flower path. I'll definitely give that a try.
