The Randomness of Planting: Breaking Free from Copy-Paste Traces

Prompt
Create a landscape visualisation whose planting reads as genuinely grown rather than instanced. Show every tree of the same species clearly different from its neighbours — varying in overall height, canopy width, trunk lean, branch structure and the density of foliage — with none appearing rotated copies of one another. Detail one tree as noticeably poorer than the rest, thinner and less full, because a real planting always contains one that struggled. Show the shrub masses with irregular outlines that overlap and merge rather than sitting as discrete blobs, with a few plants leaning out over the path edge and one gap where something failed. Detail the ground beneath as varied: mulch showing through in places, self-seeded weeds at the bed edge, leaf litter caught against the kerb, and grass thinner under the tree canopies. Show the seasonal state as consistent across all species — all in leaf or all bare — a mistake often made. Photorealistic, naturalistic, green and irregular, eye-level view.
