Cultivar Catalog (Field Cultivars Tab)

Overview

Open Farm → Lavender Field and choose the Cultivars tab in the planning panel. This is where you choose what the Plant tool will plant. The game has 422 cultivar records in all; 377 can go in the field (the rest are alias names or identities held for review). See the cultivar list for every plant.

Search and filters

• Results come 24 to a page with Previous and Next.

Each cultivar card

• A painting and a growth-stage tag, the plug price in coins (13 to 38) and a ☆ favorite button.
• Name, group, identity type and zones, marked "well suited" or "challenge" for your zone, or "Level N" if it is still locked.
• Six rating bars: Oil, Aroma, Stems, Bundles, Display, Culinary.
• "View cultivar details" for evidence and explanations, and a link to grow it for real.
• At the top: 📓 Open Cultivar Atlas and a "How cultivar ratings affect the farm" note.

What the ratings mean

Unlocks

• A starter collection of well-known cultivars unlocks between Levels 1 and 10 (for example Folgate, Hidcote, Munstead, Buena Vista, Jean Davis and Grosso at Level 1).
• All other cultivars unlock gradually from Level 11 to Level 100.
• A locked cultivar's card is grayed out and shows its level.
• Cultivars you already had growing stay plantable.

Tips

• Turn on "Suited to Zone N" first, then sort by use.
• Lavandin types tend to suit oil; English lavenders with high Culinary stars suit kitchen products.
