Rows Garden #99

Posted October 30th 2012 at 12:23 AM by Andrew J. Ries

ROWS GARDEN 99 — HARDER

ROWS GARDEN 99 — EASIER

Rows Garden 99 Harder — Solution

Rows Garden 99 Easier — Solution

This one kind of turned into a mini-themed Rows Garden; I’ve had the Row A answer on ice for a year now, but I’m glad that the G1 and K1 entries were able to find their way in the grid too. Funny how these things end up.

If you haven’t already, be sure to check out Neville Fogarty‘s site and solve his contest puzzle before Thursday morning. He’s offering weekly puzzles on Fridays, and be sure to check them out. Speaking of meta contests, Erik Agard has another meta on his site, too. Both young constructors display great talent for free on a weekly basis, and they’ve definitely got the stamp of approval from AP.com.

Enjoy!

• Rows Gardens Instructions

  Deviating from the standard Across and Down format of clues and entries, Rows Gardens offers its clues in two forms: Rows and Blooms. Each row, for the exception of the top and bottom, will have two entries consecutively; the first clue starts at the far left, and the starting point of the second clue is for you to determine. The top and bottom rows are a single entry, spanning the nine spaces provided. Intersecting these Rows are six-letter Blooms, segmented by the shade of the center dot: Light, Medium, and Dark. These answers can be placed clockwise or counterclockwise, and their starting points are left for you to determine. In the Harder version of the puzzle, Blooms' clues are listed in alphabetical order, so their placement is reliant upon getting the answers to the Rows clues. In the Easier version, the Blooms' clues are listed in the order they appear in the grid, always going top to bottom, left to right. For additional assistance, notations like (2 words) or (Hyph.), usually not given in standard puzzles, are provided in the clues. Clues that do not have a notation are standard one-word, non-hyphenated entries.
