[LD] No Death Flower from Opening Starter Flower Seeds at Cemetery

I have the same issue. I tried opening at least 20 flower packs in different conditions: during the day, night, as a ghost, during a festival, after restarting the game. It never worked.

Someone also wrote that you can buy the death flower from the mysterious merchant, but he never has one.

Ditto on not getting a death flower from opening starter flower seed packets in the cemetery.

You can get a death flower from the Mysterious Rancher if you have Horse Ranch and befriend him.

As a ghost, I was able to deliver a death flower without ever having one in my possession. As soon as I took the quest from the Death Obsessed Lenore Member, the Obtain a Death Flower step was ticked off. And no, I checked several times, and there was no death flower in my possession. Not sure if this is a bug or working as intended.

I too was unable to get the death flower from the starter flower seed packet mentioned in the tool tip. It then occurred to me to try opening a Farmer's seed packet at the cemetery and that did work to get a death flower.

However, that 1) isn't what the tooltip says and 2) doesn't unlock until a sim has higher gardening skill (level 7 per Carl's Sims gardening guide, mine had maxed the skill so I had to check), so would make it harder to do. 

Best regards,

Same issue for me; I opened a packet of starter flower seeds at a cemetery but no death flower.  I'm now trying to rack my brains about how else I can get one (apart from spending ages grafting one) so that my sim can finish the tarot card quest!

@JuniperWhimsy if you don't want to use cheats (i.e. bb.showhiddenobjects), and your sim can't buy Farmer's seed packets, I have a room on the gallery with a death flower (and other ambrosia ingredients).

Also, in addition to getting one from the mysterious rancher if you have Horse Ranch (which was mentioned above), if you have Realm of Magic they sometimes sell them at Castor Alley at Magic HQ. 

Good luck!

I purchased 5 starter flower seed packets before travelling to the cemetery in Ravenwood, and when I opened the packets, none of them gave me a death flower.

I’m having this bug too. I’ve tried opening them a few times now and tried different purchase methods. Very frustrating.
