GULGALLANA + CALICO

[You are ushered through an archway covered in flowers of your team color and find yourself in a different, smaller garden- or at least, what will soon be a garden. Plots of freshly turned soil are lined up in two rows and the area is littered with all the tools you could need. The small field is surrounded on three sides by a wooden fence, and past it all that can be seen is a thick white fog.

Along the back fence is a wooden table, covered with paper seed packets. Each packet has the plant name and a price neatly written on the front, along with some...slightly strange descriptions. You can examine them all you like, but you'll find you can't actually pick up the packets...until you pay for them, of course. A small pile of silver coins sits on the table next to the seeds, which you can move and distribute freely.

A voice speaks from the sky as you look around, just as loud and obnoxiously cheerful as before:]

Okay, let's get started already! Today you guys are gonna try to grow the best garden you possibly can! You can handle that, right? Yeah, I know ya can! Seriously, it ain't hard, just buy whatever ya want! Oh, but be sure to take good care of them, and make sure they all grow big and strong. Trust me- you're gonna need 'em!

Well, how about two sunflowers in the back, with walnuts in front of them?

We can do that. With that, we've spent 50 points for 4 slots... We're going to need some form of attack, too... Peashooters are the most cost-effective overall, but...

Remember, we do not need to fill all of the plots.

We don't need to, no. Still, unused space is also space that isn't doing anything useful.

So, we could buy five more basic plants, or three of the 15 credit plants. Or perhaps two of each.

...Then, how about a Cabbage in the back with a walnut in front, and... Hm. A snapdragon and a peashooter, perhaps?

Yes, that would be effective, I think. A diverse arsenal with a good balance.

...Then, let me decide on an arrangement...

WWSWx
CUxUP

Here, we have the Walnuts flanking the Snapdragon, With the cabbage in the bottom-left, and the sunflowres remaining behind the remaining walnuts. The Peashooter is planted to the right of the Sunflower on the right, so as to provide additional protection.

...Do you think this would work?

I believe that would be optimal, yes.
