Gardening - what do you plant?

What an awesome treehouse, love it. Are those trees cc? I guess you moved the tree into the platforms?
Now that you mentioned having aquariums without the need to care for them, I had to go and look for a tuning mod, and I think I found it. It's the same situation with other small pets, which I love, but I'm not fond of having them die on me all the time. The kids may look after one or two, but it starts getting difficult after that.

Thank you! :)

The trees used there are store content from the Ren Faire venue. And yes, I MOO’d the biggest tree on the left into the platform, and then cut out holes in the central sections of flooring so the platforms appear to be built around it. The smaller trees were placed around the home later, to give the illusion of support. That’s pretty much my usual technique for building treehouses. I like having planter and soil rug gardens on the platforms so I can keep the fruit trees outside, all the plants can get the benefit of rain, and the deer and horses cannot destroy them. Unless they learn to climb stairs and ladders. :lol:

I use a tuning mod for minor pets for the same reasons. :mrgreen: And these are the ones I use for the aquariums and fish bowls: https://modthesims.info/d/541635/fish-tank-capacity-and-fish-bowl-feeding-mods.html

Your Cronor shots are great! That world is on my need-to-play list, but I haven’t gotten to it yet with all my other Simly projects and stories. But yes, I usually plant the ITF crystal flowers only if I'm playing a bot-builder, although I do like placing those and the huge ITF utopian flowers on fantasy-themed lots. Which reminds me... I also have a tiny community garden with crystal flowers and ITF RH rugs in my fairy world for my bot-building fairy.
