Creatively, they used red roses on the top half circle of their island, and filled out the bottom half with white flowers so an aerial view of his entire map would looks like one massive ball.
Here’s a video after I planted my roses and put down some paths. So many roses. Definitely over 500 at least. pic.twitter.com/ZRIYalg9RP
