With relocating to Spiritwind, comes a host of new items to beautify your SL. One of the things I wanted to do first, is redesign my Windy Meadows, the glowing, flowing fields of grasses that are a best seller at Petals on the Wind. Being on a homestead sim means that prim count needs to be watched carefully.Quite a feat being a garden store and having a passion for landscaping! Trimming down the Windy Meadows will offer those with smaller prim allowances have the same beautiful grassy fields, using a fraction of the prims. Where a single field grouping used to be 18 prims, you can achieve the same result using about 4 prims. The newly redesigned 1 Prim Meadows come in several varieties, and are menu-driven resizable, with the option to turn on/off fullbright and delete scripts to cut down on lag.
I also added a few single prim fields of flowers to the mix to add cheer. These have several textures that you can change by menu, to add interest and depth. Be sure to stop by the Pink & White Gazebo for a look at all the new fields & trees.
I've also had fun building some lovely realistic Bamboo. These are not ordinary alpha bamboo plants, these are sculpted prim bamboo and they are gorgeous! They come in 3 colors, 3 sizes, 2 styles of groups, and can be purchased in several pack variants. They look great in or out of the water, and will be a must have for your Asian garden!
Nurse Logs or Stumps are an important part of the ecosystem where I live in RL and they are a wondrous sight to behold in any forest setting. Currently, I have two lovely such builds. The Nurse Log, which hosts 4 saplings, vines, ferns, and even a spider is rather large at 15 meters long; and the Nurse Stump, a single sapling being nurtured by the old decaying stump, surrounded by various other flora.
You'll also find lots of new trees: Mighty Oak Trees, Autumn Trees, 9 prim Alder Groves and 2 prim Forest Pines available in towering 30 meter sizes!
