+General look
+  - Has to be simple, hundreds of frames of different plants in stages of growth/decay needed.
+  - Has to work with an isometric view (but it's all flat planes overlayed with transparency)
+  - Not too hippy, need to move away from games like http://apps.facebook.com/treetopia
+  - Perhaps more monochromatic/schematic is a good approach

+Companion character
+Quite taken with the worms idea - who would know more about permaculture than worms? It's possible a "wise old" character or hive mind would work well too.
