Calling all wanna-be gardeners! Are you someone who loves to garden, but doesn’t have the time, space, money, or talent to do it? Maybe you’re bogged down in a stuffy apartment, or maybe everything you attempt to grow dies. Well how about testing out your gardening talent in the virtual world? Flower Garden, by Snappy Touch, is a virtual flower lovers paradise!

You start out the game with three different seeds which grow into white, purple, and orange flowers. Every flower in the game is a real flower in the world, so if you find one you like you can go pick it up for real! As your flowers grow to perfection, you can harvest them and form beautiful bouquets. Then send your masterpiece to a friend through email. As you grow more flowers, you’ll be awarded with more seeds. Eventually, you can have a garden full of different colors, shapes and sizes!

The graphics for this application are very well done. You can watch as your flowers actually sway in a breeze. It’s pretty hard to kill your plants in this game, so don’t hesitate to challenge yourself! The app comes with a few different technical options. The main one is the ability to change the background for the email you send.

All in all this is a well done, pretty entertaining app. I find it hard to admit as a guy, but I did enjoy earning different seeds and making awesome bouquets. For a price of $1.99 it’s definitely worth checking out, green thumb or not!

Verdict: 4.5/5 Stars
