❥ How do you play Herbaceous?

In Herbaceous you try to gain points by collecting and potting herbs from the community garden and your private garden.

Each player is gets four Container Cards. The herb cards and special herb cards are shuffled into one deck. Depending on the number of players, you place the deck as a draw pile. In the center of the table is the community garden and all players have their own private garden. The game proceeds in 2 steps.

Step 1. Pot Herbs (optional action)
At the start of your turn, you may choose to pot herbs. You may use each Container Card one per game and turn. In the first turn, step 1 is not possible.

Step 2. Plant (mandatory action)
In this step you will plant herbs in your private garden and in the community garden. You take the top card of the deck and decide whether you want to place it in your private garden or in the community garden. The second card is placed in the 'unselected' yard.
