Where are Spicy Mushrooms?

@sepia if you don't want to spend a day or two waiting for them to spawn & be harvestable you can always buy them in build/buy if you have enough simoleons. As for nightly mushrooms, you can harvest those between 10pm & 4:30am during winter.

I've been spending a lot of time in Bramblewood with my Sims but I can't see even the mounds anywhere. Are they supposed to grow on some specific season? It's spring in my other save and fall in my other.
The only time I saw the mushroom mounds was the first day when I played and went to the Bramblewood woods I think they were nightly mushrooms. The next time I visited there the mounds were gone, they had completely vanished and I've never seen them again. I've visited the place in the middle of the night as well and searched everywhere. There is no mushrooms or even the mounds anywhere.
I've already given up with them, I don't want to waste my time looking for something that's either invisible or just doesn't exist. :/

It takes quite some time before I see plants spawning anywhere in the world. I sent my main Sim to Bramblewood every day for a week, and never found anything to forage. I usually had her fish for a full day then return the following day and again spend the day fishing or chatting up the locals. I saw plenty of dirt mounds but no plants. I finally cheated a bit and bought one in B/B. I'd rather not do that, but desperate times means you do what you have to do to get things done. :)

I was having trouble finding spicy mushrooms for days and then canceled the errand. :/

I think the color palette of the world makes them too hard to see. There aren’t many things to harvest or dig there. I find a mound by a bench near the waterfall. I think there is another near the ruins by a gazebo. But I’ve never seen anything grow. It’s winter in my game.

I think I saw the one near the ruins but the mound was gone the next time I went to see it and there's nothing now. I think it needs to be a winter, maybe, until they grow, but I'd expect to see at least the mounds. I'll go see the one near the waterfall if I can find it when I play today.

I got a few of them for completing errands (I planted them and now they grow in my Sims' garden). They are red with white spots, kind of like fly agarics in real life.

I got more last night. They were the nightly mushrooms this time. Maybe I should upload them as a room to the gallery?

One of my Sims has a spicy mushroom in personal inventory. Actually two. Where it came from? I honestly have no idea. Possibly as a gift during a "festival" in Henford.

I suppose most of the people having problems with finding harvestables do have Seasons installed.
You do have to take into account that harvestables aren't always in Season.
The spicy mushroom for instance is in Season in Summer and in Winter an can be randomly harvested from the random mushroom harvest slots during these Seasons.
