Plant Creation Wizard
The Plant Creation Wizard can be used to create a new plant
using the appearance of the currently selected plant. This is useful for when
you wish to use an existing plant as a starting point for your own
variations.
Note: Due to their complexity, you cannot
currently create custom variations of UltraRes Plants®.

To create a custom plant:
1.
Add the plant that you would like to use to your landscape design. For
instructions, see Adding a Plant.
2.
Modify the color and brightness of the plant as needed. Either adjust the Color and Brightness of the plant, or
edit it using the Realtime
Picture Editor.
3.
Ensure that the plant is selected.
4.
Click Tools and Plant Creation Wizard.
5.
Click the Next button.
6.
Click the Set File Name button, enter the desired Common Name for
the new plant, and then click the Next button.
7.
Enter the desired information for your plant and then click the Next
button. This information is optional, but it is recommended to accurately enter
the Mature age and Mature height as they affect how the plant is
sized when it is added to your landscape design.
8.
Click the Finish button to complete the wizard.
Your new plant will appear in the Custom category of
the plant library.
