I know that page 128 says that garden planets would never appear on brown dwarfs, so what goes there instead when the proximity to the star and system age makes a blackbody temp that gives a garden? I could use an ocean planet, but the roll and the age made it a garden.

And you meant, of course, that solitary stars less than nine solar masses evolve into white dwarfs without going supernova. White dwarfs can go supernova if they are accreting material from elsewhere (Type Ia supernova).
