He explained that it doesn't.

My question is: won't the plants just die eventually?

Plants on community lots won't die. And they usually keep (re)growing and growing fruits. So if you harvest one, the next time you'll show up, it might have fruits again.

I made a perfect garden for personal use. It includes the Forbidden Fruit, but when I placed my garden in a new neighbourhood, I found out that the Forbidden Fruit can't be harvested. I have no idea why. They're at the harvest stage, but the option to harvest is grey. So I think it can't be done. Maybe Maxis designed it that way, to make it harder, IDK.
What I do to get a Forbidden Fruit is have a sim become skilled in Science and then analyse the Forbidden Fruit in my garden. They'll get a sample of it, which you can clone in the Science machine.

I didn't download it, because I have my own . But I thanked anyway, because like you, I used to download other people's versions and couldn't live without them.

This is an attractive garden and I like the design.

I used to spend hours making all-perfect community gardens, too, and updating them for each expansion using a tireless, blooming fairy. Then, I found Two-Foot Mama's gardening mod at Naughty Sims Asylum, which allows you to simply place totally perfect, mature plants directly from buydebug. I think she has updated the mod through University now. Gawd, I wish I had found that earlier.

Thank you so much for this! I've had a heck of a time getting all the coffee beans and it's been driving me up the wall. It's a great bonus that the lot looks so pretty too.

If I had known that mod existed I probably wouldn't have made this =P. Oh well!

Also, I forgot to add that the lot does not include death fruit, because you harvest it once and it's gone.

Can you use this if you dont have Supernatural, Uni or Seasons?

The problem i have with lots like this is deer turning up and eating the plants
why cant ya plant the money tree? never had the issue with one before
the forbidden fruit wont work here because its needed on a residential lot to become a baby plant sim. (to get your own seed tho just splice any plant on science station and get lucky)

nice idea tho for us that don't like to use mod/debug to buy stuff

I always find it handy to take a sim with a few tents and place them and leave them there for garden lots

Unless I'm utterly blind - I swear I just spent 10 minutes looking at every planet on this lot - the apple tree is missing.

To anyone without an expac, you can still use this. The plants that you do not own the right pack for will just not appear.

Even without the apple tree though, this lot is lovely. And there's enough room on it to place a couple bee keeping boxes and clear out some of the decorative trees and put down an arboretum.

I've just been playing this lot and noted the same thing. It's still awesome, but a bit disappointing that the apple tree is missing.

However, now I know about the Naughty Sims Asylum mod, I'm not that bothered!
