Goal: build all four foundations up from Ace to King, each in a single suit.

  • The bouquet across the top is a spread of sixteen cards, and any of them may be played — reach into the middle, not just the end.
  • The six flower beds build down in any suit, one card at a time.
  • An emptied bed may be filled by any single card.
  • Nothing is hidden and there is no stock: every card is face-up from the start, so the whole game is a puzzle you can see.
