Midsummer's Night Dream Park

[Janna]

Here is the second park I worked on.  It is a 40 x 40, also has all of the plants from the base game, SN and WA.  This one doesn't have a pond, unlike the Enchanted one.  Same aspect, the plants are all perfect except the money trees, they go from normal to great and I can't remember if it was this one or the Enchanted Garden that has the restrooms/showers made unbreakable.   There are spawners for alchemy gems and for alchemy insects along with some insects and butterflies just to give a nice look. 

The link is the same for Enchanted, on the showboat thread in building on page 125.  I hope these work.   As is with the other park/garden, make any changes you want and if anyone likes it and wants to share it, as long as it doesn't break any rules, I have no problem with it.

This is another view of the patio section and fairy area thought I had the bee hives here, but remembered that is in the Enchanted Garden

I hope this gives a better view of the park/garden. 

I hope they just show up!

Sorry for so many mistakes, my first and probably going to be my last time putting something here.

Hi Janna,

I downloaded both gardens, but haven't had the chance to look at them in-game yet. I was wondering if they had any store content in them?

[Janna]

No, no store, no CC, didn't use any mods (don't have any)  just the plain old basics from the games.  I have seasons, but there are no plants to add so I just ignored it. 
I should have remembered to note that, but  it slipped my mind to state that.  I was just so glad that I finally figured out how to put it here my mind were bye-bye (obvious in how I had to go back and add some things, and still missed one).

*Sigh*

Another one is that I am open to critiques on it.  Things that would make it better for anyone. 

[MrsFlynn]

Thanks for letting me know.  There is one plant from Seasons that I can think of. Pumpkins. Not sure off the top of my head as to where to find them.

Ah-ha!! Searched SimsWiki and found this:

Lotsa plants for University too!!

I looked at both of your gardens and couldn't decide which one I liked the best so I just downloaded them both. Thank you for sharing them.

[Janna]

Ms. Flynn,
I had forgotten about the pumpkins!  I know that the only plants that Pets has is the carrots and since I didn't reinstall that I didn't have them. 

The market for MV is around $20 so that will be a while before I buy that, not high on my list of needs.  I probably won't get University, it sounds nice but not sure it is what I would want to play.  So, I will be missing out on those plants.

I am thinking of working on the plants that produce items that are not real type (don't remember, steak, egg?)   and then updating the gardens.  But not sure if I want to undertake that, hadn't considered it when I was first doing the garden.  Hadn't even planned to grow all of the plants to perfect, but then decided to do so. 


Grimsoul, glad that you like them.   I am working on what I am thinking of as a world garden, the same plants, although I may go the route of the other plants, but have three ponds, one from each country.  I
Oh, man, I just got a picture in my mind, triangle, center fountain, patios, play area.  I know what I will be doing for the next few days

Wow that's amazing! Loads of work went into this. I always admire people's patience to create farming parks that have perfect harvestables. Nice work!

[Janna]

Thank you,

I found a way to kinda cheat,  .  Not really cheating, just made it so easy I don't mind doing gardens now.  It lets me be creative.  I had created my sim fairy couple and now I just go back to that town and pick out another lot.  I move them onto it and with the perfect plants in their inventory and with bloom, I can grow a perfect garden pretty quick.  Move them out to a house, do finishing touches and turn the garden into a community lot.    There's she grows!
