What this puzzle is about
Garden Paths is a medium word search about plants and the features of a garden. Ten garden words are hidden in a 14 × 14 grid, from tiny parts of a plant like PETAL and SEED to bigger features like a HEDGE or an ORCHARD.
Who it suits
It is a medium puzzle for solvers who are ready for a larger grid and a longer list. The words are familiar, which keeps it relaxing, but with ten of them running in eight directions, including backward and diagonally, it still takes steady attention. It suits older kids, teens, and adults.
How to start
Start with ORCHARD or GARDEN, the two longest words. ORCHARD contains two R letters, while GARDEN begins with a less common G. Once those are found, look for the double O in BLOOM and ROOT.
About the words
The list is PETAL, ROOT, SEED, BLOOM, HEDGE, GARDEN, TULIP, ROSE, PATH, and ORCHARD. It mixes the parts of a plant with flowers and garden features, so it works nicely alongside a spring or summer gardening activity.
