How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.68.154.1020

    Which plants do you have issues with ?

    Please try a game repair.

    Is this a save you started after or before the patch ? Newly planted after the patch ?

    For everyone posting in this thread, please provide the following info

    1. Do you own Seasons ?
    2. Do you have large gardens ?
    3. Does it matter which plant or does it happen to all of them ?
    4. Did you plant the plants before or after Nov 11th Patch ?

    If you also have green clouds emitting as if the plants were dead but they're not, please use this thread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-Plants-playing-dead-emitting-green-cloud/td-p/9751998

    I was relieved that this was finally fixed with this patch, or so I thought. After playing about 2 sim weeks in my game, my plants started reverting once again to a pile of dirt. This is a new save might I add. From what I remember, so far it has happened to my daisies and strawberries. I will jot down and update if it starts to happen with other plants. 

    ETA: I only have 6 plants. So not as many as the OP.

    @SimmerMars As OP hasn't come back yet and I don't know what it's for them (before the patch it was sage and basil and issues with the cowplant), could you create a new thread for the time being until OP comes back and make it about those two ?

    I might remerge if they confirm it's also these for them.

    I had some of my plants disappear today when I was watering them. Strangely, not all of them did disappear. I do not have seasons.

    The mushrooms were fine. Unfortunately I don't have any other plants to test with at the moment.

    Oaky I had hoped the issue would be solved after this new update but my plants are still disappearing after I tend the garden. It says they are there but only a seedling mound is visible. Anyone else having this issue? No, I don't have seasons.
