Withering happens as a result of playing a Red Card

Watering is the act of drawing an additional card.

As opposed to the card you draw at the start of your turn.

When you play a Blue Card, you Water a Flower.

Pulling

Pulling is the act of making your opponent discard a card.

When you play a Purple Card, you will see your opponent's hand. Choose a card and they will Discard it. Seeing their hand is a tool. Be sure to use it!

The next time a card Withers or Pulls that Flower, discard that card, ignore its effect, then bloom that Flower. Clear the shield after.

Flowers Board

Hand

The first column is your hand. The last column is your opponent's Hand. You have 5 "Flowers" in here. On your turn, you choose one to play, and that will Bloom its associated Flower. Choose with the A Button. The game doesn't currently have the ability to cancel your choices, so be careful.

Discard

The second column is your discard pile. Conversely, the second to last column is your opponent's. This might be removed in a later version, as it no longer has a gameplay purpose.

Score Area / Garden

The third column is your Score Area, where you're planting your Flowers and tending to them. You have 5 Flowers here as well. Points will increase or decrease depending on the actions described above. Your opponent's is the third to last column.

Log

There is a small log on the bottom of the screen that will tell you actions taken, responses to actions, and so on. Pay attention to it or you might get confused.
