  Test of the  
Formal Garden
Discipline
Requirements
  • Level 11
Principles
  • Unknown
Demonstration
  • Demonstrated by ?? in ?? on ??.


Passing the Principle

The tab reads: "Formal Gardens are arrangements of flowers and labeled Stellae describing the arrangements, geneology, and design philosophy of the space."

  • Build a Gazebo
  • Plant a Flower
  • Crossbreed a Flower
  • Plant a Crossbred Flower
  • Build a Formal Garden Stella
  • Label a Stella
  • Open your Formal Garden for Judging
  • Have Seven Judges rate your Formal Garden
  • Design rated Good by most judges

Gazebo

is built in a Small Construction Site

example (beware flowers are added as extra's): ny9pg8.png

Designing Your Garden

"Choose a pleasing array of flowers and arrange them within a 100-foot radius of your Gazebo, which is probably best built in a scenic area away from too much traffic."

  Having less than 7 flowers OR more than 100 flowers within the 100 foot radius prevents you from opening your gazebo for judging!
  1 coordinate = 16 feet = about 5 meters. So 100 feet is roughly 6.25 coords (conversion source: Travel)

Choosing a scenic location can be helpful, as making pretty terrain prettier can be short work. You can also use other kinds of buildings to enhance the area, but remember that flowers create quite a bit of lag - you might want to take this in consideration when you build. Also, too many things in one place means that it will be tricky to see it all because of the caps on object rendering...Sometimes less is more.

How to judge a garden

Formal gardens may be judged by any Initiate of Art and Music, and should be judged for beauty and variety of flowers, not raw volume of plant matter.

  Keep in mind that the surrounding of a garden, many times, can not be helped - In other words, a garden in the middle of a desert
  has the potential to be just as spectacular as a garden set up in a highly decorated camp.

Unlike other art Tests, Formal Gardens may be tended after judging has opened.

Getting Flowers

These flower types are currently available:

  • Sea Lilies are obtainable at any University of Worship that has the Horticulture technology is researched.
  • Sand Blooms were given as event prizes. Currently, only the "Caliope" variant of Sand Bloom is in game.
  • Orchids were given as event prizes. Currently, only the "Avalon" variant of Orchid is in game.

Other types of flowers not currently available in Tale 6 are:


You may request one flower bulb of each type (one Sea Lily and one Rose of Ra) per character at any University of Worship that has researched the required techs (Horticulture for lilies, Xenobotany for roses. but take care...Once you have received a Lily or Rose from a University, you will never be able to get another Lily or Rose from a University - It's a 1 per character type of deal.


If you want any additional varieties, you'll have to trade for them. Some flowers (including all Sand Blooms and Orchids) cannot be gotten from the Universities at all; they come to us through various events and must be traded.


Probably the best method of getting flowers is via trade; there are many crossbreeders who have new strains of flowers for you to plant and/or cross. This is quite useful if you are interested in crossbreeding. Using hybrid bulbs that current breeders have developed means you can advance the progress of breeding rather than redoing the same basic crosses they've done. This means you can reach what would otherwise be difficult color/size combinations more quickly. So do a little homework, and contact breeders.


Crossbreeding Flowers

You can learn more about making new strains of flowers in the Genetics guides.
