Let's begin your leafy legacy! 🌱📖

🔎 Step 1: Get cozy in your mysterious little plant shop 🏠🪴. Take a look around — learn where everything is, from your inventory shelves 📦 to your creepy but helpful tools 🧪. Understanding how to store, label, and sort your flora friends will be essential once your customer line starts growing. 🌿✨

🗣️ Step 2: Listen carefully to the quirky folks of Undermere 👵🧙‍♂️. Townsfolk will pop in one by one, bringing with them tangled tales, strange ailments, and curious questions. 🧩 Sometimes, they'll leave behind helpful trinkets 🪞 or hints that nudge you toward uncovering rare, magical plants. So don’t just nod — take notes! 📝🔍

📚 Step 3: Dust off your Horticulture Book 📖🌼. It’s your best tool for plant ID! Match mystery plants to illustrations and brief descriptions. Look at leaf shapes 🍃, petal colors 🌸, and even scents 🌫️. Sometimes you’ll need a little trial and error (oops! 😅💥), but every successful ID brings you closer to mastering your collection. 🧠🎯

🗺️ Step 4: Don’t stay rooted — explore! Your map 🗺️ will slowly unlock as you make progress. Click around and send your gaze (and imagination) to eerie forests 🌲, fog-filled ruins 🏚️, and ancient stone circles 🔺. Each location may reward you with rare specimens or pieces to the greater puzzle. 🌄🧪

🌟 Step 5: Harness your plants’ powers! 🧙‍♀️ Some shrubs calm people down 😌, others reveal the unseen 👁️, or even illuminate paths through danger. 🌈 Knowing which plant to use — and when — can help you overcome major obstacles and solve the puzzles woven into the storyline. 🎭🔓

🧵 Step 6: Immerse yourself in the story. Strange Horticulture isn’t just about plants — it’s about mysteries, cults, destinies, and decisions. 🐈‍⬛ Each letter, conversation, and diary entry might hold the key to something deeper, so pay close attention to the details. 🕰️🔮 Lovers of lore, this is your time to shine!

🕯️ Step 7: Don’t rush. Strange Horticulture is designed to be savored 🌙. It’s a game of slow, thoughtful discovery. If you feel stuck, take a break, pet your black cat Hellebore 🐈‍⬛, rearrange your labels, and breathe in the strange, earthy calm of your gothic greenhouse. 🌿💨

🌟 Final Tip: Embrace the unknown. The path to becoming a master plant whisperer isn’t a straight line. It’s filled with mystery, beauty, and just a dash of darkness. 🌘🌼 So brew a cup of tea 🍵, light a candle, and let the strange world of flora pull you in. Happy growing! 🌱🧙‍♂️💚
