An alternative to Palace Gardener as the gold uncommon for the (Green-white archetype).

The difficulty with this archetype is that white really doesn't ramp. Green is the mana producer, white is the mana consumer. But the one kind of ramp white does get occasionally is searching out Plains, as on Knight of the White Orchid, and putting them into your hand. I could see one of those working in this set. (White never gets more than one of those per set.)

Not sure whether the white ramp effect should go on an explicitly {g}{w} card like this, or just something monowhite to let you use it in {w}{b} Decadence as well. Probably the latter, come to think of it. This card design is also too close to Custodians of Nippon, so all told, I'm probably not going to go with this one. I'll leave it here though anyway as it is moderately interesting.
