If you play a tree, flip the top card of the deck into the clearing, then place the tree in front of you. If you play a dweller, pay only the cost on the dweller you choose, then slide this card under a tree that has an empty side that matches the dweller you want to play. (A tree can have cards played on all four sides of it: top, bottom, left, and right.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlternatively, you can play a card face down as a tree sapling. This card costs nothing and can have dwellers played on it, but it has no species, whereas each tree is one of eight species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter you play a card, you can use the effect on this card (drawing cards, placing additional cards, taking another turn, etc.) or gain the bonus you gained if you paid for this card with cards of the same color — or both, if applicable, with the effect taking place before the bonus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf at the end of your turn the clearing contains more than nine cards, place all of these cards in the box out of play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring set-up, three winter cards were placed into the bottom third of the deck.
