How to use this prompt
"Multiple hand-drawn plant studies arranged across the page" is the technique — naming each specimen and its position is what produces a multi-study journal page rather than a single botanical illustration; without per-specimen placement the model renders one central plant. "Faint pencil annotation lines connecting some specimens to small handwritten-style notes" is the journal cue — the annotation lines are what makes the page read as a working sketchbook rather than as a finished print; a clean page reads as a botanical poster. "Colour swatches of botanical greens and browns along the bottom edge" is the palette-detail cue that sells the page as a working artist's reference.
Variations to try
- Swap the temperate plant studies for tropical specimens — monstera leaf, hibiscus, orchid — for a tropical journal variant
- Change the layout to a single-page spread with a large central specimen and smaller detail studies around it
