Horticulture

About this board game

Horticulture is a casual strategy game for 1–10 players that takes about 20 minutes, inviting everyone to plan and plant a beautiful personal garden.

Each player creates a garden complete with a garden gnome and a meandering path. On every turn, players take turns picking the plants that everyone must add, then all players simultaneously draw the chosen plants in their own gardens.

The challenge is to make the most of your growing design. Points come from accomplishing the plan you created, grouping similar plants together, filling your window box, and planting near your garden gnome. Every addition contributes to the developing shape and scoring potential of your garden.

• Plan and plant your own individual garden.
• Choose the plants that everyone must add.
• Draw the selected plants simultaneously in your garden.
• Score by completing your plan and arranging plants in rewarding groups.
• Earn points for your window box and plants near your garden gnome.

Horticulture combines shared decisions with personal planning. Although everyone works from the same selected plants, each player is building a distinct garden and pursuing the scoring opportunities created by their own design.

Released in 2023, Horticulture offers a concise garden-building experience for a wide group of players. Whether you are arranging similar plants, working toward your plan, or deciding where to place your next addition, the game turns a shared selection into a personal horticultural puzzle.
