Gardens / Intermediate
Formal Garden
A symmetrical formal garden with a cross path, a central pool and box hedging.
Minecraft garden blueprints
Gardens are the cheapest way to make a build feel finished. A path, a hedge line and a small pool do more for a courtyard than another room, and they are the easiest thing to place on flat ground you already have.
These 8 designs cover formal beds, a raked gravel court, a hedge maze, an orchard and two pavilions. The model shows the published planting layout; the website does not simulate plant growth or grass spread.

Questions before you build
Do the plants grow or spread?
The website displays a fixed block model. In-game growth and spread depend on the blocks and world settings; check the materials before placing it.
Can I place a garden on uneven ground?
These designs assume a flat area. Level the site first or the hedge lines and paths will show steps where the terrain drops.
Which garden is smallest?
Rose Garden is the most compact; Hedge Maze and Formal Garden need the largest footprint.
