Hedgerow: Star Battle Puzzle

One hedgehog in every garden. That's the whole rule, and it's enough to keep you thinking for hours.

Hedgerow is a calm logic puzzle made of soft clay. The board is split into gardens. Place one hedgehog in every row, every column and every garden. Hedgehogs like their space, so no two may touch, not even at the corners.
