pls pls pls do a landscaping guide im so jelly of ur talent and I wanna make my towns look nice without literally copying others

[@lukaslovesdizzy8214]

Loved the video, may I ask will you be doing a dirt path guide or can u tell me the best way to get them

[@DazzaBound]

I am indeed!

[@bluefrancis14]

Thank you for this. Currently playing ACNL again from my town back in 2013

[@BradyRay_333]

Hey man, thanks for this. I have started playing New Leaf again and for the first time am working on the gardening of my town. This was really helpful!

[@micahcarpenter1341]

**CAUTION** Do not plan out your layout with holes before you can plant the trees/bushes!! The holes will be gone when you get back!! How do I know? All my holes... all my plans disappeared... don’t make the same mistake.

[@rainbowyoshi9894]

I'm late to the party for commenting, but you can plant out all the holes if you have everything you need. From experience going inside your house, taking out what you need, and then exiting your house doesnt remove any holes. That only happens if you save and quit. So if you have a bunch of fruit, saplings, and bushes ready for decorating, plan all you like!

[@Matcha_crossing]

@@rainbowyoshi9894. My holes disappeared when I went to mainstreet

[@UnownKanine]

I haven't played this game for over a year and decided to start a new town. Completely forgot about the proper spacing for trees and my only perfect apple died. c':

[@vchlopie9357]

also ive been having this problem so i just wanted to add that cedar trees only grow on the northern side of your town unfortunately!

[@astrid210677]

Great tutorial, thank you! 😊

[@Tiz2909]

I missed your tutorials! Great video!!!

[@TheMidnightwolf15]

Such a good tutorial Dazza! I'm currently trying to do a second town of mine that I created after the amiibo update since I had no real connection to the town that was already on that cartridge (does anyone else do this?) and I'm trying to use more bushes in this town than I have in my previous town. This will be super helpful to look back on. I'm also going to attempt dirt paths as well, but since I haven't got my main line of paths sorted out yet, them patterns be stayin'! :D Can I just say as well that Morriwood is looking gorgeous! I'm kind of trying to emulate Morriwood in my own town as well :) ever since you've been playing New Leaf again (you and a certain other streamer ;) ) you've given me inspiration to work on my own game as well.

[@ThatClotpoll]

Been playing ACNL for the first time recently. Thank you for the tips!

[@Matcha_crossing]

I would want to play but a 3ds is a pretty big splurge would u recommend it

[@ThatClotpoll]

@Matcha_crossing If you plan to Homebrew it, then I'd personally recommend getting one. It's honestly the only way I was able to play New Leaf as well as other games

[@RealmOfUnknown]

My new town, I’m adding a lot of diagonal and slightly naturally curved paths to navigate through the town (I lucked out and eight villagers all decided to set up shop right near one another). Placement has been difficult, but I’m trying to make a very overgrown and naturally forest town. It’s fun, although I personally love the Spuce trees so much, I hate that they can’t be placed everywhere..

[@prestonboyd8658]

Come Visit Newmist! ☾ 4C00-002A-1D11 It’s an enchanted forest set in fall at dusk. It’s filled with plenty of flowers, cedars, clovers and mushrooms

[@neonhiss]

I’m plating new leaf for the first time. So thank you for this video :)

[@kelly361997]

Thanks Dazza! I’m actually having a problem with an area right now, I can’t seem to plant anything in it, and it’s completely deserted!! I’ll try these rules tomorrow

[@captain5935]

how did you get your path to look so natural! what is your secret??

[@melovx3928]

Search up "QR Codes Dirt path"

[@JumyteWasBanned]

Thank I needed this am working on my town

[@discussingwhattodo5381]

WAIT OOPS I DIDNT KNOW YOU CAME BACK AND ITS BEEN A YEAR IM SO SORRY

[@mimi-dx4ho]

how do u get native fruit thats not in your town ? eg. if ur native fruit is apples how can u get peaches

[@Mandy-mf8ks]

moonlight mp4. Going to other towns, or going to the island tours and stealing fruit there lol

[@mo8guy]

You just saved me a lot of time and bells! Cheers from the U.S.

[@moonchild07613]

How do you got that path!!!!

[@lavechelavender]

Thanks! This really helped me!

[@mikistrawberri]

Oh my gosh! Thanks for the guide!

[@DDRandDSLover]

Very thorough, thank you so much!

[@joseburger6775]

this is super helpful, thanks!!

[@duckyunnie2228]

i never knew about this its gonna help a LOT 😊❤

[@duartsy]

This was really helpful and well done thank you so much

[@yuyiskis]

Dude you are a hero

[@Bigzamaya]

My tree keeps dying right next to my bush. And i followed all the steps above?

[@catlance]

thanks

[@Latalie]

I love your town 😍🥰

[@elsie_welsie]

This is Soo helpful!

[@danielsegarralabrador5532]

This will most likely get buried but let's try anyway. I wanna plant a tree. However, it dies each time I try it. It is not near any building and it is spaced away from the river so it should work and the only other plants near are flowers and a tree. Help?

[@myramoria7763]

Can a bush grow next to rock?

[@MegaCracker18]

No I don't think so. Unless it's fake cuz u can smash it and put a bush where u wanted it. (Smash it first if you can.)

[@Wild_Wehttam]

I planted bananas, mangos and lemons all near cliffs and they all died, I had no idea.

[@bradhighley9952]

So I've recently started a new town (on an extra copy of ACNL) with the intention of filling every available nook and cranny with perfect fruit trees. So given the limitations of rule #5, how would you suggest spreading out the trees to ensure the most possible trees take root?

[@user-xj1kr6rv2o]

Where did you get dirt path

[@josemine8863]

What about next to concrete

[@DazzaBound]

They'll grow just fine, I use this in my town

[@cerise_galaxy6738]

Can u water a saplings to much? Do you only need to water them once? I was told water them 3 times.

[@vchlopie9357]

you don't have to water them at all actually! they grow by themselves :)

[@AllIsFiller]

Anyone know if bushes/trees can plant by rocks? Im trying to plant a bush by the town hall but there's a rock in the way

[@henrykingbeats]

HOW'D YOU ADD THE DIRT PATHS!? ARE THEY CUSTOM DESIGNS?

[@CB-zu5wl]

Now the switch is almost out

[@CasperSpencer]

What was that money tree in the background?

[@starlightagstudios]

I know this is old but can you plant trees by the train tracks?

[@ArthurTheEagle]

No, you can't, unless you leave 1 tile space between the train track fences and the trees.

[@Sam-sn8oy]

Are the rules for trees the same in New Horizons?

[@karl5758]

whoever made the 7x7 rule is just evil

[@meowmeow9617]

Can you tell us how you made those dirt paths? They look very cool

[@StarrieMoonlight]

Run on the grass daily and all the time you are where you want your path to be , the grass starts to disappear after a while cant remember exactly how long tho maybe a few weeks,

[@meowmeow9617]

@@StarrieMoonlight Oh cool

[@Nathanyt420]

I am just confused on one of the rules it was that you cannot plant more than 8 trees in a 7x7 square but the video showed a 5x5 I was wondering if it was a typo or the wrong clip

[@DazzaBound]

You're right, the trees are planted in a 5x5 square, with the central tree only being the 8th, which should grow. But in the 7x7 square, there's a peach tree at the bottom-right that's already grown, making the central sapling the 9th in the 7x7. You can catch a glimpse of it at 2:33. Sorry for any confusion!

[@Nathanyt420]

DazzaBound Thank you I understand now and have already made my tree growing corner of my map :)

[@happypills3490]

Do houses count as buildings?

[@joejenkinson]

Scareii Roblox yup they do

[@kelseycarr1608]

none of bushes will flower :(

[@papastummyfuzz9281]

I planted three cedar saplings, my favorite, and they all died. It then planted fruit trees right next to the dead saplings, plus like four other fruit trees, and they ALL GREW. WTF?
