With level 55 Construction comes the opportunity to show off your gardening skills a bit more with the improved formal garden.

Key Features

A typical formal garden

If your garden looks too shabby for your nice house, the formal garden can provide a nicer surrounding for your portal. If you have two gardens (normal or formal) you do not have to have two portals. Instead, you can build a dungeon entrance, if you have a dungeon below.

Aside from the centrepiece the garden is largely for decoration. Plants can be purchased from the Gardener for a price and planted in your garden for experience. Fencing, hedging, or even nice fountains can be built in the formal garden.

The Hotspots

Formal garden hotspots

As shown in the picture to the left, there are eight types of hotspot in the formal garden that you can construct on:

• Centrepiece
• Small plant / Big plant
• Small plant 2 / Big plant 2
• Hedging
• Fencing
• Door
