From BoardGameGeek
If we are able to maintain the health and diversity of our garden, then it will fill up with life and become a refuge for fascinating creatures. Hummingbirds and bees are the first to arrive, filling the air with color and movement, but if we stop and observe with more attention, we will discover a hidden and unknown world: tiny inhabitants abound in the mushrooms, puddles, and foliage. They are under our feet, living out their lives without being perceived...until we decide to look under the leaves. Each turn in Under the Leaves is played in two phases: the placement of a garden tile, then the possible arrival of new beings. Whoever gets the most pieces in total wins. -description from the publisher
