Yesterday I completed the yellow trail finishing off with 5 black unicorns. After the 5th and final unicorn was spotted I saw a message saying “ Woo Hoo. You have completed this level” ...... or words to that effect, but instead of my pot turning the next colour and planting the next bush, it went brown before my eyes. I started the yellow trail all over again, but I am fairly certain the time limit had not been reached.  Was there a glitch, or did I do something wrong?

The words are:  “ The Topiary Black unicorns task is now complete, you have completed this topiary trail” I still have it in page page and have taken a screen shot of the message

I have decided to ask for technical assistance so have emailed FairyLand Admin directly.

The black uni is the last critter on the yellow trail/pot (:

There isn't another bush on the yellow trail after the black unicorn.  That's the final animal.  It's normal for the bush to become RTH when you complete the trail, still in the shape of the final unicorn.  You then harvest it.

I can't see from your garden news whether you successfully harvested the bush you are referring to but you are definitely showing as having harvested one yellow trail.  Have you done one before?  If not then you successfully harvested the bush.  If that wasn't the one you harvested (ie if you think you've done two yellow trails, not just one) then contacting FL Support is the thing to do. 

Thanks Tess and that’s why I thought I got to level up to the green pots

So your yellow trail is complete and the green pot should now be unpacked (if you have completed the required red and orange trails to unlock) :)

*unlocked-  not unpacked

Going to the Topiaries section of the pot shop will tell you what you still need to do, in order to unlock the green pot.

Anything with a green tick is completed.  Anything which doesn't have the green tick still needs you to complete it.

Thank you ladies.i believe Tracey and Michelle have the answer. I have been absent for 2 years and came back to an incomplete level. I had forgotten we have to do the levels more than once and I cannot remember if this was my first or second yellow trail finished. I will assume it’s my first unless I get a message from tech. Assistance saying they found a problem. Is there somewhere I can refresh my memory about the trails.
