University Text

You sign up for the Test of the Formal Garden and learn to construct a Gazebo, the centerpiece of any formal garden. You also learn to build decorative Stellae, which may contain information on your plants. You are instructed that formal gardens must have between 7 and 100 flowers within a 100 foot radius. Formal gardens may be judged by any Initiate of Art and Music, and should be judged for beauty and variety of flora, not raw volume of plant matter.

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

Overview

The Test of the Formal Garden is the fourth test in the discipline of Art and Music

Passing the Principle

Formal Gardens are arrangements of Flowers and labeled Formal Garden Stellae describing the arrangements, geneology, and design philosophy of the space.

  • Build a Gazebo
  • Plant a Flower - see list of available types here
  • Crossbreed a Flower and plant it.
  • Build and Label a Stella

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.

Passing the Test

The 2 highest-rated gardens pass each week.

See Test Pass History or http://julianatdeltona.com/atitd/PassedTests.aspx

Gardens Open for Judging

  • Green for recognized (passed) Gardens (use "Gr" prefix on pin)
  • Red for unrecognized (unpassed) Gardens (use "Rd" prefix on pin)


Demonstration

The Test of Formal Garden must be unlocked by someone who holds five hundred Orchid Bulbs of any kind, or any mixture of different kinds.
