ADDED SUMMER VARIANT AND SOLO RULES

	The written values are not points. It's always 1 point per card!		The written values are not points. It's always 1 point per card!


			== SUMMER VARIANT ==

			Each player receives a plain purple start card in their garden instead of beginning the game with a random flower. During the final scoring you will only score for color groups that connect to the purple start card. You may never cover the purple card.


			== SOLO MODE ==

			All placement and scoring rules are the same. You have 2 draw stacks to take from - one face-up and one face-down. After you take a card (from either stack) and plant it in your garden, the top card of the face-up stack is discarded. The game ends immediately once 1 of the stacks is empty.

			Score:

			10 points or less = Beginner

			11-17 points = Apprentice

			18-25 points = Expert

			26+ points = Master

			EACH WEEK YOUR SCORES IN SOLO MODE WILL BE AVERAGED AND POSTED TO THE WEEKLY FLOWERS LEADERBOARD.
