Garden Fantasy

Monday, November 16, 2009

My favorite places in all of Second Life are gardens.  I love looking at how other residents set up their small plots of greenery, which makes Flickr's Second Life Gardens and Homes groups some of the regulars that I watch.

Getting land in SL is not cheap.  So that puts a limit on what a single landowner can do.  But the greenery merchants have the resources to create spectacular sims filled with dream gardens for every season.

The first of these gardens that I visited in SL was Creative Fantasy.  I believe on my first visit it was only two sims and shared a third with another merchant.  But now the garden has four sims dedicated to each season.  All of the sims are beautiful, but my favorite by far is Winter.



Winter at Creative Fantasy bucks the Americana/Britannia Victoriana vibe of other gardens and takes it's inspiration from Russia.  Which makes it very unique and a bit exotic for Second Life.



Hidden in the nooks and crannys of the Winter Garden, you can find animals frolicking in the snow. Bears and wolves are the main residents of the Winter Garden but there are deer and others.  Of course, Winter Garden has loads of Holiday decorations and greenery for all an SL resident's needs. Everything is for sale and its hard to exert some self control when wandering around the sim.
