Convert polygon symbology to point symbology?

Question

I created an elaborate polygon symbology to display different plant species in ArcMap 10.4 using different colors and dotted borders.

Is there any possible way I can apply this symbology to point features?

You could buffer your points to create circular polygons that you can then shade with your symbols.

The guy at ESRI hotline did not come up with this. Great answer! Tipp: If you want to have a rectangular buffer use the "minimum bounding geometry" function and select the envelope option. – CuriousIndeed Apr 4 '17 at 13:21
