I put my cowplant in the garden of my legacy Sim family, and it was in the care of the doctor. He then moved out, leaving the core family unit, and so I did a bit of rearranging the house and garden (as in, I rebuilt the house entirely, and moved a few things in the garden to accomodate). I used the folly object and put it behind the cowplant. Unfortunately, this hid the cowplant from general view and I forgot it was there for a little too long. I next saw its skeleton. :( At this point some of the legacy family have died, so I have made a little cemetery out the follies and statues, and the cowplant has taken its place there.
Cowplant: Gone, but never forgotten.
