Rose Petal Place was a short-lived franchise created by David Kirschner, with toys by Kenner in 1984. In conjunction with the toys, two TV specials were made to introduce the characters and setting, as were a series of books, cassette tapes, games, and even a vinyl record. The specials were produced by Ruby-Spears, with Marie Osmond voicing Rose Petal.Long ago, the resident family of a Victorian-style house moved away, and a little girl took one last stroll through its garden, weeping, before they left. Her tears changed some of the flowers into little maidens, and their living arrangements were similarly transformed toys and gardening implements. In the present, Rose Petal's magical singing helps the garden and flowers live forever, but trouble lurks in the form of the hideous spider-woman Nastina, who is always trying to take over the garden with the help of her horsefly assistant Horace.The first special, Rose Petal Place, dealt with Rose Petal and her friends thwarting Nastina's attempts to take over the garden, leading Nastina to lure Rose Petal into a trap by pretending to have reformed. The second special, Real Friends, dealt with Rose Petal's friend Sweet Violet attempting to get into showbiz, only for Nastina to exploit her worries and turn everyone against Rose Petal so she could attack when their guards were down. | |

Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: Nastina was a surprisingly ruthless villain for an 80's cartoon, let alone one aimed at little girls. She more than lives up to her name, and tries to kill the heroines at least five times over the course of the specials, interrupting a musical number to try and crush them with a birdbath, trying to flood the garden by breaking a fountain, locking Rose Petal in a room with no light so she'll die, trying to catapult rocks onto everyone, and trying to run everyone over with a lawn mower. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: In the book Rose Petal's Big Decision, Nastina gives Rose Petal a fake letter for a recording contract that will take her away from the garden for weeks, and volunteers to be in charge of the garden while she's gone so she can take it over. Rose Petal agrees to a trial run as she plans her departure, but Nastina mismanages the garden so badly, including locking Tumbles in a cage, that she decides to stay and not leave at all. | |
