I know, the first question would be "Why not just play Madness?".  I’ll be honest, I don’t have the blue cards or the bazaars.  I’m a big fan of the enchantress deck. With this deck, play early green beats then explode with enchantress, the 15 enchantments MD and replenish.  Replenish is there to smooth the deck out a bit in case you have to pitch too many enchantments.  Replenish also ups the artifact hate by recycling Seals.

Manabase
4 Forest
4 Plains
4 Savannah
4 Windswept Heath - works great with Sylvan
4 Wasteland - Need the disruption
1 Strip Mine - ditto
1 Black Lotus - Still need quick speed
1 Mox Emerald
1 Mox Pearl
1 Sol Ring

Search/Draw
4 Sterling Grove - searchs and protects Sylvan as well as SB cards
4 Argothian Enchantress - good draw engine
3 Sylvan Library -Really good, even better with shuffle effects
1 Pursuit of Knowledge/Enchantress’s Presence - enchantress number 5 or a really good combo with Sylvan
3 Replenish – explosive, with all the early discarding from Madness, then drawing more with Enchantress, then discarding more Madness effects,  It’s a vicious loop

Control – more in the board
3 Seal of Cleansing - always has a target
1 Peace of Mind - outlet for madness, triggers enchantress, abuses Sylvan, THANKS BeBe!

Beats
4 Hidden Gibbons - beats and is an enchantment, plus it’s a one drop, pitch to Mongrel, then replenish later if need be
4 Arrogant Wurm
4 Basking Rootwalla
4 Wild Mongrel - I can pitch enchantments then replenish or play Madness Creatures


SB
1 Words of Wisdom – might switch to Balance, slot for really fast beats
1 Worship – anti FCG, fast beats
3 Swords to Plowshares – tog, dragon
2 Krosian Reclamation - dragon
1 Aura Fracture -
1 Seal of Cleansing – anti disk, fatness
3 Hidden Guerrilas - obvious
1 Karmic Justice - anti balance, deed
1 Carpet o Flowers – helps against blue, Grove protects it
1 Replenish – heavy counter decks

Rarely has Flatulence been turned to advantage, as with a Frenchman referred to as "Le Petomane," who became affluent as an effluent performer who played tunes with the gas from his rectum on the Moulin Rouge stage.

I don't think you should have so many sterling groves.  Let's say you draw one without an enchantress out.  You play it and it does nothing.  What are you going to tutor for that will win the game?  I'd play with two or three.  With three, I'd run 2 enchantresses presence.  With all four, I'd run four presence.
