Disabling Seasions But Keeping its Stuff - Want to disable weather or make plants in season year-round? You can do so with my new Seasons Tuner Mod
Improving Sims 4: The past month, I've spent every day tinkering The Sims 4, making quality of life improvements, gameplay changes, and new difficulty settings for the game. If you'd like to learn more about my project, visit the post on Patreon where you can download it now.
The following shows the locations of all plants that can be found by collecting them from the various neighborhoods of The Sims 4. While many are available, others may require grafting - see the gardening guide for more information. Please be aware, you may need to spend a few real-time minutes in the active neighborhood for the game to spawn the plants.
The following video is a beginner's guide to Gardening and the changes made in Seasons. If you still want to find plants the old fashioned way, the list below the video will be helpful to you.
Use Control + F to type a plant name and see where it's found!
Neighborhood #1 - Foundry Cove
Neighborhood #2 - Courtyard Lane
Neighborhood #3 - Pendula View
Neighborhood #4 - Sage Estates
Neighborhood #5 - Willow Creek Commercial District
Magnolia Blossom Park
Quick Grab Plants:
Some of the plants on this list can be found in one of two places.
The park behind the BFF's house (Garden Essence)
The park behind the Umbrage Manor
Neighborhood #1 - Parched Prospect
Neighborhood #2 - Bedrock Strait
Most plants can be found at the park near Zest's house (Slipshot Mesquite). A Strawberry plant can be found across the street from Zest's house.
An onion can be found at the edge of the neighborhood to the left of the Sandtrap Flat house.
Neighborhood #3 - Acquisition Butte
Most plants can be found on the path behind the Landgraabs' house.
Neighborhood #4 - Skyward Palms
Most plants can be found by the Caliente's house.
Neighborhood #5 - Oasis Springs Commercial District
Desert Bloom Park
Neighborhood #1 - The Island
From the Bluffs
Neighborhood #2 - Modern District
The following are found in Hare Square, all in Planter Boxes so they can be watered, weeded, fertilized, grafted and harvested. Also other plants can be planted and more planter boxes added.
Neighborhood #3 - Old Town District
Ancient Ruins
Neighborhood #4 - Countryside
The Neighborhood around with The Shrieking Llama Bar:
Van Haunt Estate
All in the garden area next to the maze.
There's really only one neighborhood in this commercial zone. But lots of little areas to find plants. Look in the surrounding parks.
Newcrest doesn't have any neighborhood names, so we named them with the names of the lots we visited first in each neighborhood.
Neighborhood #1 - Twin Oracle Point (Pink Tree Left-hand Corner)
Most plants found around the Tranquil Crescent lot.
Neighborhood #2 - Optimist's Outlook (To Right on map)
Neighborhood #3 - Midtown Meadows (Upper Middle on map)
Myshuno Meadows (Park)
Festivals:
See the Festivals Guide for more information on festival times. The plants are spawned in when the festival appears and are all in the large planter boxes. Each festival will spawn in slightly different plant on each new festival spawn. Generally, it seems that only one 'special' plant will be different if there are going to be variances.>
Romance Festival Plant Possibilities:
Note in every single festival spawn there are plants named 'snapdragon' when you mouse over them but when you harvest them they usually are lilies. The plants also look like a lily plant so I am assuming that it is a developer's error.
Spice Festival Possibilities:
All around the camp area are a lot of "wild plants" if you have Outdoor Retreat installed. These are the herbs that came with the game pack. Once your Sim levels up in Herbalism they can be identified by tasting them.
Campground
Base Game Wild Plants:
Herbs:
Camp Garden (by mascot)
National Park/Granite Falls Forest:
Base Game Wild Plants:
Herbs:
Behind the restrooms (near the horseshoe games outside Ranger's Station), a normal plant spawns that takes time to grow. It is usually the only one of its sort. For example, if this plant is the Fireleaf then usually all the others in the area for harvesting will be the Poison Fireleaf.
This plant will need watering very soon after spawning in and usually once again before it is ready for harvest. If you don't water it, it simply will die before you can harvest it.
Ranger Station (These can be bought for Simoleons)
Hermit's House Garden
The plants that spawn here will change from game to game. These plants all spawn in planter boxes, 3 the large size and 3 smaller pots.
Round Rock Garden
Base Game Plants:
Morel Mushrooms (both sorts randomly) will spawn just in the general area of this loading area. The type just depends on the game file but the locations are the same for every game, so it's safe to say that both types of morel mushrooms can be found somewhere in the Deep Woods.
Throughout Forgotten Hollow you'll find the new plants included in the pack, which do not as of yet grow in any other neighborhoods.
Vampires Plants

There are now quite a few ways to get the harvestables from purchasing some in Granite Falls (Outdoor Retreat) to harvesting them in certain festivals (City Living) and like you said, purchasing them from the city vendors.
Console Section
Blackberries (on the PC version) grow in the Base Game Park in Oasis Springs. They take literally sim hours and hours to appear and then even more time to grow to the point a sim can harvest them and a slightly shorter time to take a cutting from them. I take my sims there on a sim weekend (Friday) and they stay there easily until sim Monday fishing and playing chess etc. The plants are located (as you look head on at the park) to the far right near a rock face but before you get to the public toilet/bathroom block and also to the right side of the very back fishing hole.

Thank You for the Most Useful Plant Guide Ever!!!
Wow never knew plants were in theses places. Can someone tell me where I can find a cherry tree
There's cherry trees in the Sylvan Glade hidden lot...but the sim has to be on the lot for it to grow. Many other plants are there as well as unique fish
Does anyone know where I can find the Crocus plant?
The plants that came with the Seasons DLC don't grow in the wild, you have to buy them from seed packets by clicking on a planter or through your Sims PC
I've been looking for like an hour for Garlic and i found it but it's never ready to harvest. Maybe I can buy it somewhere?
Garlic grows in Forgotten Hollow but your sim will have to actively be in the area for the plants to grow. You can buy it buy clicking on a planter box or with a PC.
Please update this with the new world or point me to a list as good, thank you
Sorry, no plans at the moment to update this list as most plants can still be found following this guide. Maybe some time in the future we'll take another look at this page :)
Can you update this to include Brindleton Bay and Del Sol Valley?????
Will this be updated with the new cottage living and other packs?
No, we won't be updating plant locations as all the plants are very easily located and/or purchased these days. Locating plants was a bit tricky when the game was new so we made this guide to make it easier. Basically, any plants you want will be found in the specific packs world or neighborhood the plant came with, or you can purchase them by clicking a planter or buying seeds on the PC.
No Orchids? Or Dragon fruit?
They need to be either grafted or bought from various vendors depending on the packs you own.
You're missing the brindleton bay map from the PETS expansion pack and the added Catnips strains.
That's because the Cats and Dogs expansion pack was not released when I made this guide. Due to being able to buy pretty much any plant from seed packets now it is not viable to update this guide, so if you are missing a plant I suggest simply buying the seed packet from a planter or a computer.
