2024 Big Update on The Vegetation (Patreon)
Content
Hello everyone! Léa here, bringing you a spring update on the vegetation in Paralives. 🌷It’s been a minute since we made a post about all the vegetation, but you’ve seen some sneak peek during our yearly recap for 2023. It’s time to give you a tour of everything we’ve added so far to the game, some are old friends, but the majority haven’t been properly introduced to you yet! This post is for Patrons only so please don’t share it, thank you! 🔐
Huge Trees to Help Fill the Neighborhoods
One of my favorite things to create for the game are big fluffy trees. They are so tall that Parafolks look minuscule next to them. They are perfect to create shades and dimensions in gardens 🌳
From left to right: maple tree, hornbeam, birch, willow, and poplar. Notice Maggie under the willow tree?
From left to right: white spruce, norway spruce, Siberian fir, bamboo, royal palm and maritime pine.
Small Trees Perfect for Backyards and Sidewalks
Not every tree should be 10 meters tall, so we added smaller species and younger trees to have more variations and give you a wider range of options 🌿
From left to right: sakura, rowan, japanese maple, european fan palm, greek juniper and cedar.
From left to right: apple tree, gingko, and four variations of trimmed yew trees.
Let’s Talk Bushes!
With or without flowers, bushes are heavily used in every one of our builds so far. Chloé and I love to improve our yards with them. They are great to fill up empty spaces and make a garden look cohesive and well thought out.
From left to right: hedges, simple bush, halo dogwood, heavenly bamboo, aucuba, blue oats, aloe vera, plantain lily hosta, and boston vines.
From left to right: barberry, hydrangea, lavender, hibiscus, yucca, hosta king size, roses, climbing roses, and oleander.
Flowers in Spring, it Really Makes Sense If You Think About It
Flowers were a non negotiable, we wanted a variety of shapes, colors and sizes to be able to create interesting compositions whenever we need to!
From left to right: dahlias, narcissus, sunflowers, carnations, calla lilies, daisies, lilies, and tulips.
From left to right: geraniums, twins, lilies of the valley, wild orchids, black eyed susans, poppies, cyclamens, and hyacinths.
I created this scene to showcase how versatile our plants can be:
A small garden, lush and bushy, full of flowers and colors!
Don’t Have a Garden? Don’t Worry, We Have Planty of Houseplants!
You’ve seen them many times in our videos, Chloé and I love to use them when we build, here is a lineup of all our interior plants so far.
All of our houseplants in what looks like a plant shop, very quickly put together (please note that this is not really a shop from the game; I just thought it would be a cute little scene!)
That’s it for today everyone, I hope you liked this recap! Plants and trees are a big part of what makes a town and house feel lived in. It was a big priority to add as many as we could with as much variety as possible in order to help you create unique scenes in Paralives.
